9♣3♠Q♠6♥6♦

The flop was checked through and Xixiang Luo fired out 480,000 on the turn. To his surprise, Robert Klein, Yang Wang, and Brian Smith all called.
When the rivers dropped, Smith was first to act and threw out a bet of 1,000,000. Luo called, and both Klein & Wang folded.
Smith showed A♦A♠10♦4♥ for a pair of aces on both boards.
"Just aces?" asked Luo. "Crazy,". he added, as he showed 9♦8♠6♠4♣ for a full house on the top, which meant the two chopped it up.
