After a flop of Qh9c3c, Vladyslav Shovkovyi bet 80,000 from UTG+1, Frederick Diser reraised from the button to 220,000, and Shovkovyi three-bet all in for 460,000.

Diser called with QsJs for a pair of queens, and Shovkovyi turned over AsAh. Shovkovyi needed his hand to hold to stay alive.

The turn card was the 9s, the river card was the Jh, and Shovkovyi won the pot with a higher two pair, aces and nines, to double up in chips.

Vladyslav Shovkovyi – 1,175,000  (29 bb)
Frederick Diser  –  1,140,000  (29 bb)
