Niveau 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Gergo Nagy limped in from under the gun and Wing Po Liu raised to 325,000 from the hijack. Nagy responded with a pot-sized raise to 1,125,000 which Liu called.

The flop came 10♥3♣2♠ and Nagy moved all in, covering Liu's remaining stack of 1,235,000. Liu considered his options for roughly two minutes before making the call to put himself at risk.

Wing Po Liu: A♣K♣10♦9♦
Gergo Nagy: A♥A♦K♦3♥

Nagy was ahead with an overpair but the K♥ turn gave Liu the lead with two pair. The 9♠ river changed nothing for either player and Liu collected a gargantuan double up while Nagy was left with less than ten big blinds.
