David Malka raised to 45,000 under-the-gun and Faraz Jaka moved all in on the button for about 140,000. Malka called with 3s3h and was flipping with Jaka’s AcQc.

The flop was KdJd5c, giving Jaka extra outs with a straight draw. The turn gave him counterfeit outs with the Kc, but the river was the 4d and Malka’s pair held up to eliminate Jaka.

Jaka took home $22,920 for his efforts and Malka dragged the pot.

David Malka – 570,000
Faraz Jaka – Eliminated
