Ketola Surrenders to Holz on the River

Level 22
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Fedor Holz raised to 250,000 in middle position and Seth Davies moved all in for 900,000 in the hijack with K?Q?. Holz snap-folded 9?8?.
The next hand, Holz opened again to 250,000 from early position with K?J? and Ossi Ketola called in the big blind holding 10?6?.
The J?9?8? flop gave Holz top pair and Ketola straight and flush draws. Holz continued for 200,000 and Ketola called.
The turn was the K? and Holz bet 800,000 after improving to two pair. Ketola then raised to 2,400,000 and Holz, staring directly across the table after his opponent, called.
Ketola missed the A? river and he took his time before checking. Holz also paused for a moment and checked back to win the pot and take over the chip lead.
