: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Nikolay Fal opened to 2,000,000 from the cutoff leaving just 1,200,000 behind. Dmitry Gromov raised enough to put Fal all in and Fal made the call to put himself at risk.
Nikolay Fal: A♦Q♥
Dmitry Gromov: 10♥10♣
Fal was in rough shape on the 9♦3♥2♦ flop but the A♥ turn gave him top pair leaving Gromov drawing to just two outs. The 6♥ river was a brick and Fal secured a full double up at Gromov's expense.
