Adam Lamers

Level 12 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Marcos Kenne raised it up to 16,000 in early position and Leo Rizzo three-bet to 62,000 in the small blind. Kenne four-bet jammed all in for around 400,000 and Rizzo wanted to gamble as he made the call.

Marcos Kenne: A♠K♥ All in
Leo Rizzo: 7♥6♥

The flop came 10♣3♣2♣ but neither player held a club in their hand. The K♣ on the turn gave Kenne a pair of kings but the 8♣ on the river put a flush on the board for the two players to chop the pot.

Saymon Dias was one of the short stacks left in the event and he found himself all in for his last 78,000 chips. He was called by Marcos Kenne and both players turned over a pocket pair.
