Tibor Nagygyorgy raised the small blind and Fabio Peluso defended the big blind.

The dealer spread the {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{10-Hearts} flop and Nagygyorgy bet 410,000. Peluso called.

The {6-Spades} landed on the turn and Nagygyorgy bet 1,100,000. Peluso called again.

The {10-Diamonds} completed the board and Nagygyorgy put out a stack of black chips for a bet of 2,000,000. Peluso thought for a bit and slid a single chip over the line to signify a call.

Nagygyorgy tapped the table in defeat and slid his cards into the muck without revealing his hand. Peluso did so as well and scooped the pot.
