Isla flopped two pair on the {j-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop and bet for 350,000 when the action was checked to him.

Navarro Perez called and checked again after the {k-Diamonds} appeared on the turn.

Isla bet 1,100,00 and Navarro Perez quickly folded.

Isla's stack after the hand moved up to 6.7 million or about one-third of the chips in play.

Rusu Doubles Off Chmiel

The action folded around to Tomasz Aleksander Chmiel in the small blind. He shoved with {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for 1.1 million. Cosmin Rusu called with {q-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for his remaining stack of eight big blinds with {Q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}.

Chmiel looked safe on the {6-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop to eliminate his opponent. However, the {7-Hearts} paired up Rusu on the turn. The {3-Spades} didn't change Chmiel's fortune and he became the short stack while Rusu doubled.
