On the first hand back from dinner, Thomas Keller raised to 175,000 from under the gun and Lika Gerasimova pushed all for 455,000 more.

Keller tanked for nearly two minutes before he finally called and the hands were shown.

Gerasimova: {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Keller: {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}

When the board ran out {5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} Keller couldn't improve and Gerasimova doubled her stack to 1.2 million.
