Joseph Crowley (small blind) and Cherish Andrews (big blind) put in 410,000 each to see a flop of KhJc6s. Crowley checked, Andrews bet 350,000, and Crowley called.

The turn card was the 5h, Crowley checked, Andrews bet 675,000, and Crowley used one of his Time Chips to tank for nearly a minute before he called.

The river card was the Ah, Crowley quickly checked, Andrews bet about 675,000, and Crowley called pretty quickly. Andrews showed Qc2c for a queen-high bluff, and Crowley turned over KcJh to win the fairly large pot with two pair, kings and jacks.

Joseph Crowley  –  4,825,000  (80 bb)
Cherish Andrews  –  1,620,000  (27 bb)
