Four players limped in as action went on the big blind who raised to 3,000. Only Aleksander Falch in the hijack and another opponent in the cutoff called.

All three players checked the Q♥3♥2♦ flop. Falch then bet 3,500 on the 9♠ turn and both opponents called to the K♥ river.

Action was then checked to the cutoff who bet 17,000. The big blind folded, but Falch stood up from his seat and tanked for a minute before calling.

The cutoff showed 8♠2♠ for a pair of deuces, but Falch had Q♦5♦ for a pair of queens to win the pot.

"Nice call," Oriol Palacios said to him.

"No, it was all luck," Falch replied.

Oriol Palacios had only just registered and taken his seat when he got involved in a pot with Aleksander Falch.

Falch raised to 1,000 in middle position and Palacios three-bet to 3,000 in the hijack. Falch called and they went heads-up to a flop of J♣J♥7♦.

Palacios then bet 1,500 and Falch called. The turn was the 9♦ and Palacios bet another 6,000. "For you, sir," Falch said as he put in a call.

The river came the Q♥ and Palacios moved all in for 40,000. "Just give it to him," Falch eventually said after tanking for a minute, sending his cards into the muck.
