Australia’s Thomas Prill opens from the hijack for 20,000 and gets 3-bet by Andrei Ybapob on the button to 60,000. Prill calls.

The flop is K♦ 4♠ 2♠ as Prill checks. Ybapob fires 25,000 and Prill calls. The turn is the T♣ . The Australian checks again and this time, Ybapob bets 60,000. Prill call again. The river is the 3♥ and Prill checks a third time. Now Ybapob goes all-in for 177,000. Prill calls.

Ybapob shows A♦ Q♥ while Prill turns over Q♠ T♠ for a pair on the turn and enough to eliminate his opponent. Prill nears the 900,000 chip mark with the triumph.
