On a flop of {Q-Spades}{6-Spades}{7-Hearts}, Eluterio Rodriguez and Anthony Licastro were involved in a pot. From the small blind, Licastro put out a bet of 100,000 and was raised to 250,000 from Rodriguez from the big blind. Licastro called.

The turn was the {9-Diamonds} and Licastro put out another bet of 250,000. Rodriguez quickly moved all in for 1,335,000 and Licastro went into the tank. He thought for several minutes before he finally released his hand, showing his {Q-Diamonds} face up as he folded.

Rodriguez then opted to show his {Q-Clubs}, and eventually decided to turn up his {6-Diamonds} as well, showing that he had two pairs.

"If I didn't have ace-queen, I wouldn't even think about it," Licastro said. "Even if I had aces I would have to think about it."

That pot pushed Rodriguez over the 2 million-chip mark.
