Diego Ventura limped on the button and Thomas Kysar made it 2,200,000 to go, with Ventura making the call.
Both players checked the 4♠K♠K♣ flop and Kysar put out a bet of 2,000,000 on the 8♥ turn.
Ventura came along and the two players would check the 5♦ river, with Ventura commenting, "I'm really curious what you have."
Kysar tabled A♦Q♥ for ace-high and Ventura showed down 8♦7♠ for two pair, kings and eights.
