Dominic Brugno opened from the hijack for 1,200,000 and Samuel Taylor moved all but one 100,000 chip into the middle, putting 9,900,000 at risk.
Brugno swiftly moved all in and the clock was called on Taylor as players were on a $15,000 pay jump, so the action was slow.
Taylor flicked in his final chip to call and the players flipped their cards.
Samuel Taylor: Q♥Q♣
Dominic Brugno: A♥K♦
Taylor hit a set on the Q♠6♣J♦ flop, and then improved further on the Q♦ turn, comfortably sitting with quads.
The J♠ came on the river and Brugno passed more than half his stack across the table to Taylor.
