Hieu Luu limped in from the button and then Fernando Gordo raised from the small blind to 125,000. The big blind folded and Luu made the call. The flop came down {K-Spades} {7-Hearts} {6-Diamonds}. Gordo continued with a bet of 200,000. Luu made the call.

The turn brought the {Q-Hearts} to the board. Gordo fired 350,000 and Luu raised to 925,000. Gordo reraised all in for 2.3 million total and Luu snap-called for his last 730,000.

Luu held {K-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} for two pair and Gordo held {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}.

The river was the {3-Spades} and failed to improve Gordo's hand after Luu took the lead on the turn. Gordo dropped to 1.6 million while Luu jumped to four million.
