Heads-up on a flop of 6♠3♥9♥, Ramiro Araujo bet 130,000 from under the gun and Leandro Prinz called in the big blind.
The turn was the 5♠ and Araujo bet another 300,000. Prinz again called, and the 5♥ fell on the river.
Araujo then bet 400,000, and Prinz quickly called with 10♣9♦ for two pair. Araujo could only show A♦J♣ for ace-high and gave up the pot.
At another table, Thiago Flausino's A♥J♣ held up against Pedro Grochocki's K♠J♥ on a board of 5♣Q♠2♦7♠9♥ to earn him a double up for around 400,000.
After a raise to 80,000 from early position, Marcelo Aziz called from the hijack, followed by Ramiro Araujo on the button and Leonardo Rizzo in the small blind.
The dealer spread a 9♦6♠4♣ flop, and Rizzo checked, first to act. The original raiser continued for 195,000, which Aziz called, before Araujo folded. Rizzo then responded with a check-raise all-in, having both his opponents covered. The original raiser folded, but, after using a time extension, Aziz called.
Marcelo Aziz: 10♠10♦
Leonardo Rizzo: 4♥4♦
The 3♣ turn and K♥ river completed the board, and the whole room knew who had won the pot when Rizzo's trademark "Pow! Pow! Pow!" celebration reverberated around the room.
Pedro Grochocki raised to 80,000 in middle position before Thiago Flausino three-bet to 400,000 in the big blind. Grochocki then moved all in for 1,000,000, and Flausino called.
Pedro Grochocki: A♥K♠
Thiago Flausino: Q♠Q♦
It was a classic flip, and Grochocki took the lead on the A♣7♥6♣ flop with a pair of aces. The turn was the 10♠, while the K♦ river improved Grochocki to two pair and earned him a double up.
Saymon Dias opened to 80,000 from under the gun, and Vitor Dzivielevski responded with a three-bet to 240,000. The action folded back to Dias, who called.
The dealer spread a 4♥4♠10♣ flop, on which Dias checked over to Dzivielevski, who continued for 150,000. Dias called.
Both players checked on the Q♣ turn, and the K♠ completed the board.
Dias checked once more, and, after strong consideration, Dzivielevski checked back, tabling A♦K♣ as he did so. Dias flipped over A♥A♣ to scoop the pot.
Alcioni Pollermann raised to 80,000 in early position before Bernardo Soares three-bet to 200,000 in middle position. Tiago Laude then four-bet to 575,000 and Pollermann folded, but Soares called.
Both players checked the 7♦3♠4♦ flop. Soares then bet 410,000 on the 3♦ turn, and Laude tanked for a few minutes before calling.
Soares announced another bet of 410,000 on the 4♠ river, and Laude flicked in a chip to call even before Soares had finished assembling his bet. Soares then showed Q♣Q♥, and Laude mucked.
Fabiano Kovalski opened from under the gun to 80,000, gathering calls from Renan Bruschi in the hijack, Darci Fantin on the button, and the player in the big blind.
Kovalski continued for 80,000 on the K♣7♥3♥ flop, which only Bruschi and Fantin called.
All three players then checked on the 3♠ turn and the Q♣ river.
Kovalski tabled A♠J♦, Fantin showed the winner with K♦10♥, and Bruschi mucked his cards.
