Joining the action on a four-way turn of {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}, Stephen Chidwick checked out of the small blind and Alex Epstein in the big blind made it 135,000 to go. Ka Kwan Lau called on the button and Chidwick folded.

After the {9-Spades} river, Epstein bet 225,000 and Lau announced a raise to 1 million.

"If you have aces, you got it," Epstein said and called. Lau didn't have aces, but he hit a full house on the river with his {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} to take a big chunk out of Epstein's stack.

"That's quite a river," Epstein added while paying off Lau.
