Luigi Knoppers raised it up to 110,000 in middle position with 
and Talal Shakerchi shipped all in for 910,000 in the cutoff with

The flop came 
to give Knoppers a pair of queens but Shakerchi was still out front with his pocket kings. The 
on the turn and the 
on the river changed nothing as Shakerchi scored himself a double up.
