Christopher "lissi stinkt" Frank opened the action with a raise to 5,600 from under the gun. "moddad", on the button, reraised to 19,200, before a 4-bet came from "Elkku35" to the tune of 64,800. Both of their opponents called.

On the 9♦J♥3♥ flop, "Elkku35" opened with a pot-sized bet worth 196,800, leaving themselves just 1,680 behind. "moddad" moved all in with the covering stack and got called.

"Elkku35": A♥A♦Q♣3♠
"moddad": 9♣8♥7♣5♥

"Elkku35" was roughly a 2:1 dog to survive and double up, but the J♣ turn moved them into a commanding lead. The 8♣ on the river did nothing to change that, and they scooped the pot with two pair.
