We saw Nick Maimone sitting with a healthy stack, and he was kind enough to tell us how he got it.

According to him, he opened for 2,700 holding {q-}{q-} and was met by a three-bet to 6,500 from Aleksandr Gofman. Maimone responded by four-betting to 13,500, Gofman called, and the flop came down {a-}{6-}{4-} with two hearts.

Maimone bet 9,500, Gofman called, and the dealer burned and turned the {5-Spades}. Maimone bet again, this time 14,500, and again Gofman called. Both players then checked the {6-} river, and Gofman mucked upon seeing Maimone's ladies.
