Level 19
: 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
There were about 1,600,000 chips in the pot and the completed board read 
when we got to the table. The player in the small blind had already committed 1,175,000 on the river and his lone opponent, Michael Sklenicka, had shoved from the cutoff with a stack of approximately 12,000,000. The small blind had about 3,000,000 chips remaining and went into the tank for over a minute before he called.
The small blind showed 
for the bottom end of the straight, but Sklenicka tabled 
for the top end, so he took the pot to eliminate his opponent and break the money bubble.
