Jan Skampa raised to 200,000 from the button, and Eyal Avitan quickly passed his small blind. In the big, though, Stefan Mattsson moved all in for 1.54 million. Skampa thought it over for just three seconds, shrugged, and made the call with his covering stack.

Showdown
Skampa: {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

Mattsson:

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

The board would run out friendly for the at-risk player, coming {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

{4-Clubs}

. Mattsson's kicker plays, and he's notched himself a big double up. He's back over 3 million now, drawing ever closer to the other two.
