These are the kind of 1.5M chip hands that are why Nick will win 276k to 2M, while Alex went home w/ 27k:

To understand this hand, you'd have to know how Nick has been playing up to this point. He's been making big moves, and been fortunate enough not to run into huge hands. In this situation, he ran into a big hand and was basically pot committed albeit a very tough call. He took a ton of beats earlier on, and was fortunate to suck out in this situation.
It's kind of unfair to pick on him for this hand because he's been playing very aggressively and when you play like that sometimes you have to play a big pot with the worst of it, but that's compensated by the large # of pots you've won without seeing a showdown.
IMO I think Nick is roughly 3 to 2 dog to win the whole thing.
