Level 27
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Action folded to Metodi Peychev in the small blind who moved all in for 1,000,000. Claudio Di Giacomo in the big blind took a few minutes but eventually called to put Peychev at risk.
Metodi Peychev: J♥5♥ 
Claudio Di Giacomo: K♦9♠
Di Giacomo was ahead as the flop came 8♣6♠2♠, but Peychev hit the J♦ on the turn to make top pair. The river was the 7♣ and Peychev doubled up.
