Savenkov's Big Slick Sends Romanov Out

Level 27
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Damir Gabdullin opened 1,300,000 in the hijack before Alexey Savenkov jammed all-in next to act. Maksim Romanov was in the big blind and called off his stack of about 7,000,000, and Gabdullin quickly folded.
Maksim Romanov: A?Q?
Alexey Savenkov: A?K?
Romanov was dominated but the A?Q?2? flop gave him the lead with two pair. The 10? hit the turn, giving Savenkov a few more outs, and the K? landed on the river for him to make aces and kings.
