Alexander Tkatschew opened 1,200,000 on the button and Miroslav Forman called in the big blind.
The 4?4?3? flop hit the felt, and Forman check-called a bet of 1,000,000.
When the 2? hit the turn, Forman checked once more and Tkatschew fired 3,700,000. Forman made the call.
The Q? completed the board on the river, and Forman checked for a final time. Tkatschew took his time counting out a hefty bet of 9,200,000 and pushing it across the line.
Forman went deep into the tank, taking about four minutes before deciding on a call.
Tkatschew rolled over A?5?, making a straight on the turn and Forman mucked his hand.
