Jonathan Dwek moved all in for his last 830,000, and Kenny Shih moved all in over the top. Dwek was on his feet, decked out in his Superman costume, at risk with {k-Hearts}{j-Spades} and flipping against Shih's {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}.

The flop came {k-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}, and Dwek paired his king to take the lead. The turn was the {6-Hearts}, and the river was the {k-Clubs}, giving Dwek the double for which he was looking.
