Barabadze's Top Pair Takes Down a Pot Worth a Million

Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

The pot had ballooned to over 300,000 on a board of 8?7?Q?3? when Thomas Eychenne checked, Giorgi Barabadze bet 325,000 on the turn, and Eychenne called.
A 10? dropped on the river and after Eychenne checked, Barabadze thought about making a bet but opted to check back.
Eychenne had a pair of sevens with K?7?, but Barabadze held the winner with A?Q? for a pair of queens.
