Akgul Goes Runner-Runner to Cross a Million

Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Huseyin Akgul and Ali Zebarjad were involved in a blind versus blind battle with already 120,000 in the pot as they saw the turn on a board of 8?6?Q?J?.
Zebarjad then led out for 50,000 and Akgul called. The river was the A? and Zebarjad slowed down and checked.
Akgul then bet 75,000 and Zebarjad quickly called. Akgul showed A?J? for running two pair and Zebarjad mucked as the start-of-day chip leader crossed 1,000,000 and in contention for the chip lead once again.
