Gil Aboodi limped from the cutoff, Niovel Chirino Alvarez called in the small blind, and Jordan Meltzer checked his option to the Jc9h4c flop.

Chirino Alvarez and Meltzer checked, Aboodi bet 135,000 and both players called. The turn was 5c and the blinds checked again. Aboodi bet 250,000 to get two more calls before the 9s river.

Meltzer checked and Aboodi said he misread his hand before he checked as well. Aboodi’s top pair Js6c was outkicked by KcJh to give Meltzer the big pot.

Jordan Meltzer – 3,600,000 (60 bb)
Gil Aboodi – 6,050,000 (101 bb)
