Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Shuang Luo limped in from the small blind and Maksim Shornikau moved all in for 6,300,000. Luo called off with a stack of 4,700,000, putting herself at risk.

Shuang Luo: A?5?
Maksim Shornikau: J?10?

The A?2?4? flop gave Luo a massive lead to take the pot and the 6? turn left Shornikau drawing dead. The 7? river was a formality, after which Luo scored another massive double up through Shornikau.

Luo now holds nearly two thirds of the total chips in play.
