Tom Kunze opened to 240,000 from under the gun and faced a three-bet to 720,000 by Victor Li in late position. Action folded back around to Kunze who made the call to send the two players heads-up to the flop.

Kunze checked on the 
river and Li fired off 2,550,000, enough to force Kunze all in. The German went deep into the tank but eventually tossed in calling chips and turned over
