Juan "xPastorcitox" Pastor raised his button to 550,000 and both blinds Leonard "Grozzorg" Maue and Niklas "Lena900" Astedt called. The flop of 9♥8♣5♥ was then checked by all players before Maue led out for 1,250,000 on the 4♠ turn. Astedt folded but Pastor made the call to see the river.
The K♥ completed the board and, after tanking for a while, Maue fired a bet of 3,125,000 chips. Now it was Pastor's time to think it over, and he eventually made the call.
Maue showed 4♦4♣ for bottom set, but Pastor had it beat with 10♥7♥ for a rivered flush, seizing the chip lead from the German.
