There were roughly 270,000 chips in the pot on a flop of A♣4♦7♥, and Eric Chang was all-in from the button. Pavlin Karakikov bet 125,000 when the 9♦ hit the turn from under-the-gun into a dry side pot, and Sanjeev Kapoor called from middle position.
Action slowed when the 5♠ hit the river and Karakikov showed A♦Q♦, Kapoor tabled A♥10♥ but Chang announced "what a turn card" and tabled 9♠9♥ for a set and scooped the main pot. Karakikov picked up a 250,000 side pot.
