It was just the battle of the blinds with Elias Talvitie in the small blind and Johannes Becker in the big blind. There was already over 500,000 in the middle and the dealer fanned the flop of {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Hearts}.

Talvitie checked to Becker who counted out a bet of 250,000 and Talvitie called. The turn brought the {10-Hearts} and both players checked to the {k-Spades} on the river. Talvitie checked once more and Becker announced a bet of 800,000. Talvite instantly placed a single chip in the middle to call. Becker tabled {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} for a full house and Talvitie mucked his cards.
