Level 31

Abdullah Alajmi limped in from the small blind, then called when big blind Simone Andrian raised to 900,000.
The flop came A♦2♦9♥ and Andrian bet 500,000. Alajmi called and the 3♦ fell on the turn.
Alajmi then led out for 1,800,000 and Andrian called. The river was the 8♦ and Alajmi fired out 2,200,000.
Andrian snap-called and turned over Q♠Q♦ for a rivered flush. Alajmi flashed 5♦4♠ for a turned straight as he handed over the massive pot, allowing Andrian to significantly narrow the gap at the top of the leaderboard.
