: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
A hand after their aces-versus-kings encounter, Ottomar Ladva and Byron Kaverman went heads-up again to a flop of 10?6?2?. Ladva then bet 60,000 from the hijack and Kaverman called in the big blind.
Kaverman led out for 100,000 on the 8? turn and Ladva called. The river was the A? and Kaverman checked to Ladva, who bet 400,000.
Kaverman went into his time banks but eventually called and Ladva showed 8?8? for a turned set to win the massive pot.
"You never bluff, Estonia. You always have it," Martin Zamani said after the hand.

Ottomar Ladva raised to 60,000 under the gun and Martin Zamani called in middle position.
"What are you thinking, Estonia," Zamani asked as the flop came K?4?7?. Ladva then continued for 65,000, Zamani raised to 140,000, and Ladva called.
"Just a call, Estonia? No smile, just poker face?" Zamani added as the J? fell on the turn. Both players checked and the K? came on the river. Ladva then led out for 125,000.
"Come on, chat with me Estonia. You're the only person who chats it up with me. Now you don't want to talk," Zamani said.
"Is it too late to raise," Zamani added as he took about a minute before folding.
