Lococo Breathes a Sigh of Relief

Level 13
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Dong Chen and Alejandro Lococo got involved in one of the largest pots of the tournament thus far with roughly 800,000 in the middle and the board reading K?K?4?3?.
Chen led out with a bet of 525,000 in the small blind on the turn. Lococo called from the hijack and the 7? completed the board. Chen counted out another bet of 1,125,000 and Lococo moved all in for 2,735,000.
Chen asked for a count and burned through all of his time banks before the clock eventually ran out. Chen flashed the K? before his cards went into the muck. Lococo responded by showing A?8? for a missed flush draw and raked in a monster pot.
