From the cutoff Ivan Demidov raised to 650,000 and Chino Rheem reraised to 2 million from the small blind. Demidov tanked for several minutes before announcing he was all in. And after thinking it over for a bit Rheem called as well.

And his {10-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} was better than Demidov's {9-Hearts} {9-Clubs}. As the fans ducked under the rails and pushed close for a better look, the dealer spread the flop -- {10-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {6-Hearts}. Rheem flopped a set, but Demidov now had a flush draw.

A draw that hit when the {4-Hearts} came on the turn. Now there were calls of "pair the board!!" from the crowd, and with scores of people jamming the stage the dealer flipped over the {5-Hearts} on the river. Demidov got out of his chair to accept the congratulations of his friends and Rheem bolted out of his seat and walked out of the Amazon Room. He's now down to 8.4 million, while Ivan is now up to 18.7 million.
