Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic was up over 6 million for a bit, but he's been chopped back down to size a bit by "U_Key_U" from Japan. Smiljkovic shoved the small blind over a middle-open to 80,000 from "U_Key_U", and they called off their stack.
"U_Key_U": 
Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic: 
"U_Key_U" was ahead from the start with the over pair, but flopping a set and rivering quads never hurts the equity. Smiljkovic doesn't have 6 million anymore, but still leads the 39 remaining players by 1 million chips at least.

He check-called again for 518,438 on the

Jans "Graftekkel" Arends: 
Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic: 
Smiljkovic had the over pair all along, and held over the flopped top pair for Arends.
