Duff Charette opened to 60,000, Chun Kit Kwan shoved for 600,000 and Charette called to put Kwan at risk.
Chun Kit Kwan: Q?Q?
Duff Charette: K?K?
Both players had premium hands but Charette was well ahead with pocket kings. He remained so on the J?10?5?9?10? runout to send the start-of-day chip leader to the rail and take both the pot and chip lead.
