After a flop of Heart QDiamond 10Spade 8 with about 180K already in the pot, Masaru Mochizuki has moved all in from the button for 203,000, and Kazuki Ikeuchi tanks from the cutoff with about 350K behind.

Ikeuchi tanks for several minutes, clearly struggling with his decision. At one point, he says something that gets a laugh out of a couple of players, but Mochizuki remains statuesque.

Eventually, Ikeuchi calls with Spade KClub Q for a pair of queens, but Mochizuki turns over a dominating Heart KClub K.

The turn card is the Diamond K, the river card is the Diamond 7, and Mochizuki wins the pot with a set of kings to double up in chips.

Masaru Mochizuki  –  590,000  (74 bb)
Kazuki Ikeuchi  –  150,000  (19 bb)
