On the turn 2♦, Galiana took the betting lead again with 850,000, and Sotiropoulos called.
The river J♥ was action-packed with excitement when Galiana checked and Sotiropoulos moved most of his chips in leaving behind one five-thousand-chip. The dealer announced all in, and Galiana quickly called and flipped over his cards, and Sotiropoulos flipped over his cards and then flipped them back over when he saw he had the losing hand.
Galiana held Q♥Q♦ for top pair, and Sotiropoulos held K♦10♦ for the missed draw.
