Manuel Almeida de Carvalho Hero-Calls To Bust Vadzim Lipauka

On a completed board of J♦ 9♣ 5♠5♦ 4♥ with some 350,000 in the middle, Vadzim Lipauka pushes all-in for 223,000. His table neighbour Manuel Almeida de Carvalho is in the tank and eventually calls.
Lipauka shakes his head and flips over the K♠Q♣ for a missed gutshot. Almeida de Carvalho has that beat with J♠T♣ and joins the seven-figure club.
