From the button, Dimitar Danchev raised to 325,000. Andrey Pateychuk reraised to 900,000 and Danchev called.

The flop came down {9-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts} and the top blew off. FIrst, Pateychuk bet 1.2 million. Then, Danchev raised to 2.6 million. Pateychuk came right back with an all-in shove and Danchev called.

Danchev: {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Pateychuk: {7-Clubs}{6-Spades}

From here, what we saw was unbelievable.

Pateychuk was able to turn an open-ended straight draw when the {8-Hearts} fell. Then, in an act from the poker gods, he hit the {5-Hearts} on the river to make a straight and win the hand.

When the chips were counted down, Danchev was left under one million.
