Michael Berk raised to 240,000 in the cutoff with A♠10♣ and Gal Yifrach defended from the big blind A♣9♣. Both players flopped top pair on the A♦K♠Q♠ flop and Yifrach started with a check. Berk continued with a bet of 215,000 and Yifrach called.
The turn was the J♥ and Yifrach checked again. Berk checked it back and the 6♦ completed the board. Yifrach led out with a bet of 150,000 on the river and Berk raised to 535,000. Yifrach burned through a couple of time banks and then released his cards into the muck.
