In a sizable pot of about 150,000, Vitor Paiva checked from the small blind to Jack Jaeger on the button. Jaeger fired a bet of 65,000, after which Paiva moved all in for 142,500.
Jaeger was visibly displeased with the situation, but decided he could not fold as he flicked in calling chips.
Vitor Paiva: A♥5♥ 
Jack Jaeger: A♦8♥
Jaeger needed an eight to beat the trips of Paiva, but the deck had one in store on the K♠ river. Paiva secured a huge double-up, while Jaeger was left with a stack of about 20 big blinds.
