De Necker Holds On to Bust Balogh in Massive Pot
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Pieter De Necker three-bet to 180,000 in the cutoff and Tamas Balogh called in the hijack.
The flop came K?9?10?. "You know my move," Balogh told De Necker as they quickly got in Balogh's last 500,000.
Tamas Balogh: Q?10? 
Pieter De Necker: J?J?
Both players stood up from their seats as more than 1,300,000 was in the pot. Balogh had a pair and straight draw against De Necker's jacks, but he missed the 3? turn and 2? river and was sent to the rail while De Necker joined the chip leaders.
