Parker Talbot raised to 600,000 in early position and Michel Leibgorin called in the big blind.
The flop came 7♣6♥Q♠ and Leibgorin open-shoved for around 3,800,000. Talbot tanked for nearly a minute before giving up his hand. Leibgorin showed the Q♥ as he took the pot.
"Will you tell me after like I told you," Talbot said, alluding to a previous hand played against Leibgorin today.
"King-queen." Leibgorin replied. Talbot claimed he folded queen-jack.

Omar Del Pino opened to 600,000 from the hijack and Rony Halimi immediately shoved for his last 2,450,000 from the cutoff. Yunsheng Sun asked for a count and also went all in on the button, which got a fold from everyone else, including Del Pino.
Rony Halimi: A♥K♠
