Lipp Doubles Off Ladva; Mooney Leads For a Million
Ottomar Ladva raised to 200,000 on the button and Matthias Lipp three-bet to 900,000 in the small blind. Ladva then moved all in. Alexey Borovkov was all in on the other table, and Lipp asked the dealer to count out Ladva's much bigger stack as he waited out the other hand. He eventually called for an additional 195,000.
Matthias Lipp: 5♥5♠ 
Ottomar Ladva: A♠3♥
Lipp was ahead with his fives, and the 9♦8♥6♦2♥J♠ board kept him in the lead to earn him a double up.
A few hands later, Ladva opened to 200,000 again in the hijack and Geoffrey Mooney called in the big blind.
Ladva continued for 140,000 on the 9♦2♠4♥ flop, and Mooney called. Ladva bet 540,000 on the A♦ turn, and Mooney again called.
The river was the 8♥ and Mooney led out for 1,000,000. Ladva quickly folded as he took another hit to his stack.
