The flop came 4?7?Q?. Korkmaz led out with a bet of 2,500,000 chips, which Larsen opted to call.
The tension heightened when Korkmaz went all in on the J? turn, putting around 5,400,000 chips at risk. Larsen wasted no time in making the call, revealing J?J? for a set of jacks. Korkmaz showed A?A?, holding onto a glimmer of hope for the river card, which unfortunately didn't favor him, revealing the 3?.
Larsen couldn't contain his joy, celebrating loudly, before stepping away from the table to share his excitement, understanding the disappointment his opponent must have felt.
