Alvaro Murciano raised to 20,000 under the gun and Massimiliano Mauceri called in middle position. Christophe Panetti then moved all in for 102,000 in the big blind, Murciano reraised to 200,000, and Mauceri folded, claiming he had king-queen.

Alvaro Murciano: A♠K♥

The K♣ fell right in the window, followed by 10♠8♥ as Murciano hit top pair. He improved to two pair on the A♣ turn, while the J♦ river sealed Panetti's elimination a few spots short of the money.

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

A player in the hijack moved all in for 33,000 and Adrian Teodoreanu called on the button. Taago Tamm then reshoved in the big blind and Teodoreanu used a time bank before calling for 200,000.

Hijack: K♣Q♠ All in
Adrian Teodoreanu: A♠J♥ All in
Taago Tamm: A♦K♥

Several players took out their phones and began filming the action as the flop came J♣4♠J♦ to give Teodoreanu trips. "Jack!" he yelled out as he slammed the table in celebration.

The A♣ turn improved him to a full house, while the river was the 3♣ and Teodoreanu scooped the pot, sending the hijack to the rail and earning a double up off Tamm.
