Action folded to Abdulkadir Ahmed in the small blind who moved all in for 24,000. Callum Gordon called in the big blind to put him at risk.

Abdulkadir Ahmed: 3?3? All in
Callum Gordon: A?3?

Gordon was looking for an ace as the flop came K?2?Q?. "I'll take a jack," he said heading to the turn, which came the J?.

"GG. Well played, Callum," Ahmed joked as he had to dodge Gordon's straight draw on the river. Gordon missed the 5? river and Ahmed doubled up.
