Kliper Doubles as Lead Changes Hands Again

Level 37 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Arie Kliper raised to 2,500,000 with {9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Koray Korkmaz called with {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}.

The flop came {6-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Kliper continued for 1,600,000 with a pair of sixes. Korkmaz called with his pair of eights as the {9-Clubs} fell on the turn.

Kliper, now with two pair, grabbed three towers of chips from his stack and slid them in the middle, a bet of 2,500,000. Korkmaz moved all in and Kliper snap-called.

Korkmaz needed to complete his straight on the river to win the tournament, but he instead got the {7-Hearts} to make an inferior two pair as Kliper retook the chip lead once again in their back-and-forth heads-up match.

"Unbelievable game," Korkmaz said following the hand.
