Richard Figiel and Neil Macleod were in the blinds when they played a huge pot that would put Figiel into second place in the chip counts.

Figiel opened from the small blind to 2,900,000 and Macleod took a moment before calling.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Figiel shoved all in for his remaining 7,800,000. Macleod took some time to make his decision and counted out the chips he would need to call. After another moment he called, sliding forward almost half of his remaining stack.

He showed {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a flush draw and what ended up being two over cards against the {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} of Figiel. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and the river was the {9-Diamonds}, giving Figiel the double up and putting him firmly in second place in the chip counts.
