![[user344984]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
After putting in 2,000,000 each pre-flop, Martin Lechner and Vladimir Burstein took a 
flop heads-up. Burstein checked, with Lechner putting out a continuation bet of 2,700,000. After Burstein made the call, Lechner went for a second barrel on the 
, this time asking for 4,400,000.
Burstein didn't take too long to make the call, and checked the action over a third time when the 
hit the river. After a short think, Lechner put down a stack of pink 500,000-value chips, declaring "all-in," and putting Burstein to a decision for his 27,000,000 remaining chips.
Unfortunately for Lechner, Burstein didn't take very long to call off his tournament life with a flopped set, tabling 
. Lechner revealed his 
for a failed bluff, as the huge pot was sent Burstein's way, really levelling out the top of the playing field.
