Xiaosheng Zheng raised the cutoff to 600,000 and Muhtar Taysi called from the big blind.

On the 2910 flop, Taysi checked, Zheng bet 750,000, and Taysi called.

A 6 landed on the turning, putting a second flush draw on board, and again Taysi checked. Zheng then fired out 2,000,000, and after some time, Taysi shoved for 6,525,000. Zheng went deep into the tank and burned through three time banks before he eventually folded, claiming he had ace-ten.

"If you give me $50, I'll show," said Taysi. Mihai Niste took him up on the offer, and Taysi showed 106 for two pair.
