Hand #69: Matous Skorepa raised to 1,300,000 in the small blind with {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and Jonathan Khalifa shoved all in for 11,425,000 from the big blind with {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. The action was back on Skorepa who asked for a count before taking his decision into consideration. He eventually made the call and it was a coin flip for a massive pot.

The flop came {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and Khalifa was still in the lead with two pair now. He was seen on the rail, hugging his friend, not watching the cards hit the felt. The turn was the {j-Hearts} and the river brought the {10-Spades}. Skorepa rivered a pair of tens to oust Khalifa in third place, leaving Matous to battle heads-up with Florian Fuchs.
