Marvin Rettenmaier had moved all in preflop, Artur Voskanyan got out of the way and Ran Azor made the call.

Rettenmaier: {Q-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Azor: {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}

The flop came {J-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{6-Spades}, Azor was still ahead but now Rettenmaier had 14 outs twice, making him the favourite. The {5-Clubs} on the turn changed nothing but the {Q-Clubs} on the river was greeted with a Rettenmaier fistpump.

He's now heads up with a 4:1 chip lead against Russian Poker Series Tournament Director Artur Voskanyan.
