Munteanu Wins Million-Chip Flip

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Toni Kaukua raised to 30,000 from middle position and was called by Nuri Hadioglu in the cutoff. From the button, Bogdan-Andrei Munteanu moved all in for 500,000.

Kaukua reshoved for around 750,000 and Hadioglu tanked for about a minute before he folded.

Bogdan-Andrei Munteanu: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Toni Kaukua: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Munteanu took the lead on the {7-Clubs}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop and the board ran out {8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} to earn him the double up to more than 1,000,000.

"Yes," he cried as he stood up from his seat and gave a big fist pump after winning the massive pot.
