Sam Khouiss completed from the small blind and Kenneth Damm checked his option in the big blind.

They saw a flop of {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Spades}

{3-Hearts}

where Khouiss led out for 30,000. Damm made the call. The turn landed the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

and both players checked. The river was the {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

and Khouiss fired again, this time for 60,000. Damm thought for a moment before making the call.

Khouiss tabled {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{9-Spades}

for running two pair, as Damm could only muster one pair with his {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{2-Spades}

.

With this hand Khouiss has now taken the chip lead with 630,000 to Damm's 570,000.
