Michael Esposito opened to 275,000 from middle position, Daniel Strelitz three-bet to 660,000 from the small blind, and Esposito responded with a four-bet to 1.875 million. Strelitz five-bet shoved for effectively 5.905 million, and Esposito called.

Strelitz: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Esposito: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

There were over twelve million chips in the middle when the flop fell {j-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs}. The {9-Clubs} on the turn and the {5-Hearts} on the river missed Strelitz as well, doubling Esposito to 12.05 million chips.

Strelitz plummeted to 3.1 million.
