A pot of roughly 700,000 had been built between Piotr Sztenkiel in the big blind and Elvijs Kergalvis under the gun. Kergalvis then got his last 540,000 in on a turn of 9♣Q♣6♦2♦ and was quickly looked up by Sztenkiel.
Elvijs Kergalvis: A♥Q♥
Piotr Sztenkiel: Q♠2♠
Sztenkiel was in the lead with his two pair, but the 9♦ river nullified his deuce. Kergalvis won the pot with his ace kicker, doubling up and leaving Sztenkiel with around 25 big blinds.
Elvijs Kergalvis – 1,780,000
Piotr Sztenkiel – 925,000
