Battle of the Bigs

Two of the bigger stacks in the room got involved in a pot together after Luis Rodriguez Cruz bet out 33,000 on a {6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{A-Hearts} flop. Cruz's opponent Artem Metalidi made the call.

A {Q-Clubs} on the turn saw a check from Cruz and a bet of 83,000 from Metalidi. Cruz took a few moments to think it through before making the call. A {k-Hearts} on the river brought another check from Cruz and a large bet of 180,000 from Metalidi. A mildly disgruntled Cruz went into the tank, and took a few seconds before announcing call. Metalidi flipped over a single {a-Clubs} and Cruz showed {A-Spades}{9-Spades}. Metalidi took a few seconds before he finally mucked his last card.
