Romaniuk Finally Believes Moein; Chilaud Cracks a Million
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Ali Moein raised to 9,000 from early position and was called by Egor Romaniuk in the big blind.
The flop came 
and Romaniuk led out for 10,000. Moein came back with a raise to 35,000 and Romaniuk called to the 
turn.
Romaniuk again led out, this time for 20,000, and Moein only called to see the 
river. Romaniuk now bet 35,000 and began spinning the $5 cash chip he uses as a card protector while Moein tanked.
Moein eventually raised to 110,000. "Okay, I believe you," Romaniuk said as he quickly folded.
At the same table, Maxime Chilaud is sitting on a stack of around 1,150,000, the first player to crack 1,000,000 chips in the tournament.
