Counterfeited by a Duck

Previous short stack John Strzemp III is now your current chip leader with 4,200,000.

One hand that aided his climb was against Jason Young. On a flop of {2-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, Young check-called a bet of 150,000. Check, check on the {4-Hearts} turn only for Young to check-call again, this time a bet of 250,000 on the {2-Spades} river.

Young = {6-Spades}{4-Spades}
Strzemp = {Q-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Young was not a happy chappy.
