Alexander Tkatschew opened 1,200,000 on the button and Miroslav Forman called in the big blind.
The 4♥4♦3♣ flop hit the felt, and Forman check-called a bet of 1,000,000.
When the 2♣ hit the turn, Forman checked once more and Tkatschew fired 3,700,000. Forman made the call.
The Q♦ completed the board on the river, and Forman checked for a final time. Tkatschew took his time counting out a hefty bet of 9,200,000 and pushing it across the line.
Forman went deep into the tank, taking about four minutes before deciding on a call.
Tkatschew rolled over A♦5♥, making a straight on the turn and Forman mucked his hand.
