Prabhu Dyal

In one of the first hands back from break a raising war broke out between the player in the small blind and Prabhu Dyal in the big blind.

The end result was the small blind moving all in and Dyal calling for his last 467,000.

Prabhu Dyal: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Small Blind: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Dyal's ace king high was enough to earn him the double up.
