Hille Hits a Million

Following a {Q-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Spades} flop, Elisabeth Hille and Frank Marro were involved in a series of bets and raises that culminated with Marro calling all in for roughly 450,000.

Hille: {5-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}
Marro : {Q-Hearts} {10-Hearts}

With top pair and no spade, Marro was in dire straits against the bottom set of Hille. The {K-Diamonds} turn and {3-Spades} river was all she wrote for Marro, while boosting Hille's stack to seven figures.
