Eric Tsai raised to 1,200,000 on the button with K?2? and Max Neugebauer defended Q?J?.
The Q?5?2? flop gave both players a pair and Tsai bet 900,000. Neugebauer then raised to 2,500,000 with his queens and Tsai called with deuces.
Tsai took the lead on the K? turn with two pair and Neugebauer slowed down and checked. Tsai also checked and the 9? fell on the river.
Neugebauer led out for another 2,500,000 and Tsai finally sprung his trap and raised to 6,000,000. Neugebauer took off his sunglasses as he considered the decision for a minute but ultimately mucked.
