Hand #112: Philippe Souki shoved for 19,600,000 from the button and Matija Dobric thought about it in the big blind for almost two minutes before calling.

Philippe Souki: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Matija Dobric: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

The flop {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} gave Souki top set but also gave Dobric a double-gutter to two straights. The turn {k-Hearts} completed the Broadway straight for Dobric.
