: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Ivan Poroliev raised to 1,000,000 from the hijack and action folded around to Lulei Hu in the big blind.

Poroliev was at risk for his tournament life, with his 5,525,000 stack in the middle.
Ivan Poroliev: 9♦9♠
Lulei Hu: 5♠5♦
Poroliev flopped the boat on the J♠9♣J♣ board, and he held on the K♥ turn and 3♠ river to secure the double up.
