Level 28
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Adrian Strobel opened to 1,200,000 from under the gun only for Andrey Pateychuk to three-bet to 3,000,000 from the hijack. Strobel moved all in for 15,500,000 and Pateychuk called with a covering stack to put Strobel at risk.
Adrian Strobel: K♠K♣ 
Andrey Pateychuk: J♣J♦
Strobel was in great shape with the higher pocket pair and remained ahead on the Q♦10♠7♠10♦2♠ runout to score a full double up through Pateychuk, who was left with just over five big blinds after starting the day with the third-largest stack just 40 minutes ago.
