Around 650,000 was in the middle on a flop of 10♠5♥3♣, and Stan Van Dijk was all-in for 1,965,000 and at risk versus Khossein Kokhestani.
Stan Van Dijk: J♣10♥
Khossein Kokhestani: 10♣7♦
Kokhestani had top pair but Van Dijk had a better kicker, and the J♥ turn improved him to two pair and gave him a big double-up, rendering the Q♦ river irrelevant.
Van Dijk again celebrated enthusiastically with his Dutch rail.
