Menicanin and Mustafov at Opposite Ends of Leaderboard

Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Mario Menicanin and Fahredin Mustafov are at the opposite ends of the leaderboard and just played a pot together that widened the gap.
On a board of 2?K?5?7?, there were around 80,000 chips in the middle when Mustafov bet 13,000 from under the gun and Menicanin called from the cutoff.
A 10? dropped on the river and both players quickly checked it down where Mustafov showed jack-high with J?9?, but Menicanin had the winner with Q?Q?.
