Victor Dermendjian called a raise in the big blind from a player in late position of 300,000. The flop came out 5?8?10? and Dermendjian checked and the late position player bet 275,000, Dermendjian three-bet to 650,000 and the late position player moved all in for 2,000,000. Dermendjian made the call without hesitation.
Victor Dermendjian: 5?5? 
Late position: A?7?
The late position player joked, "If you are going to report this, please say I had aces".
The turn K? and the river 9? did not improve the late position and Dermendjian won with his set of fives.
