Three Quarters for Hoenig

Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Nicolas Milgrom opened to 500,000 from middle position and Ryan Hoenig defended from the big blind.
Both players checked the 3♥10♠8♦ flop leading to the 2♠ turn. Hoenig bet 400,000 and Milgrom raised to 2,400,000. Hoenig shoved for 3,280,000 and Milgrom called with a covering stack to put him at risk.
Ryan Hoenig; A♣8♥8♠4♦4♣
Nicolas Milgrom: A♥Q♥Q♠6♣4♠
Both players had the nut-low but Hoenig was a massive favorite for the high with a set of eights. His set remained ahead on the 9♠ river to take down a sizable pot at Milgrom's expense.
