Carlos Estivill raised to 800,000 from the button with 8♦7♣, and Ben Skinner defended with Q♣4♣.

On the A♠Q♥9♥ flop, Skinner check-called in the face of a bet of 700,000 from his opponent.

The 3♦ rolled off on the turn, and the same pattern followed, this time in respect of a bet of 1,300,000 from Estivill.

The 9♠ river completed the board, and Skinner checked for a third time. Estivill fired out a bet of 4,700,000 with eight-high, and after a good spell in the tank, Skinner found an excellent call with second pair.

Ben Skinner – 20,000,000
Carlos Estivill – 8,300,000
