Mark "dipthrong" Herm opened to 25,000 from the cutoff, Fabrice Soulier three-bet to 65,000 on the button, and both blinds released. Herm tanked for a bit, riffling chips with one hand, then he grabbed a tower of blue T5,000 chips. He four-bet to what looked like 118,000, and Soulier quickly moved all in.

There was a beat, then Herm called.

The flop fell , giving Soulier a leading pair of nines, and neither player flinched. The turn was the , giving Herm extra outs to catch up, and the fell on the river to give him a winning flush.

Again, neither player flinched.

Herm now sits with 1.475 million chips.
