Ian Cohen completed the small blind to 500,000, and Frank Funaro checked his option in the big blind.

The flop came Jh9s3d, Cohen bet 500,000, and Funaro called.

The turn card was the Jd, Cohen bet 2,000,000, and Funaro called.

The river card was the 3c, and Cohen moved all in for 7,500,000. Funaro used a Time Chip to tank for a while before he called with 9d5h for two pair, jacks and nines.

But Cohen turned over Js6h to win the pot and double up in chips.
