On a flop of 6h6c4c, Paul Balzano got his last 330,000 into the middle from under-the-gun against Brian Altman in the big blind.

Altman had flopped a huge draw with his 7c5c, but needed to improve against Balzano’s QdJd.

The turn was the As and the river was the 9s to give Balzano another double up with queen-high.

The players take a 10-minute break while the staff races off the 1,000 denomination chips.

Paul Balzano – 800,000
Brian Altman – 115,000
