We picked up the action on a flop of 
and Bob Safai checked. Seated under the gun, Patrick Madden made a bet of 75,000. Gurtovoy raised to 150,000 and Safai got out of the way. Madden called.
Madden checked on the 
turn and Gurtovoy bet 300,000. Gurtovoy check-raised to 1 million and Gurtovoy answered with a three-bet to 2.4 million. Madden called instantly.
The river 
saw Madden check again. Gurtovoy bet 1 million and Madden tanked for a bit before he called. Gurtovoy showed 
and Madden mucked.
The next hand, Gurtovoy open raised again and Madden called from the big blind. Madden check-called Gurtovoy's 100,000 continuation bet on 
but check-folded to the 300,000 bet on the 
turn. Gurtovoy showed 
for another flopped diamond flush.
