and the action was checked to the turn. The turn was the 
and the player in the hijack checked. Skender made it 2,500 and his opponent min check-raised him to 5,000. This left him with about 10,000 behind.
Skender made the call and the river was the 
. Once again his opponent bet, this time making it 7,000 leaving some short change behind. Skender picked up a pile of yellow chips and slam dunked them onto the table to put his opponents tournament on the line - he made the call and showed the giant German

for the straight and sent his opponent packing.
