Huge Double For Wilhelm
Level 38
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Daisuke Ogita raised to 3,500,000 from the small blind and big blind Sascha Wilhelm called.
The flop was K?5?7? and Ogita bet 4,000,000. Wilhelm called again to see the 8? roll off. This time Ogita checked to Wilhelm who bet 11,000,000. Ogita took his time before he announced all in for effectively 41,200,000 as he covered the German. A snap-call followed and they opened up.
Sascha Wilhelm: K?9?7?6? 
Daisuke Ogita: K?K?J?4?
The 3? on the river didn't pair the board and Wilhelm's straight was the best hand and won him the pot.
Shorty after, James Cavanaugh lost a pot to Ogita where he gave up on the river and the Japanese player recovered some of his losses leaving Cavanaugh as the clear short stack.
