Ilari Sahamies raised preflop, how much we're not sure, and was called by Samuel Rodriguez in the small blind. The 
flop saw Rodriguez check-call a bet of 140,000 and then check the 
turn. Sahamies upped his bet a bit to 500,000, which proved enough to get the job done as Rodriguez folded his hand.

Mikalai Pobal raised from the early position to 130,000 and Anaras Alekberovas made the call from the hijack seat. Antonin Duda called as well from the small blind and Samuel Rodriguez raised to 350,000. The original raiser Pobal folded and Alekberovas did the same while Duda made the call.
The flop went 
and Rodriguez bet another 380,000. Duda folded and Rodriguez collected the pot.
John Juanda had a couple of bluff bullets loaded but Antonin Duda had the armoury to take the heat.

The flop fell

and Juanda had another go with a 330,000 bet. Rodriguez gave up but Duda was not to be shifted from seeing the 
river.
Juanda tanked for a minute and checked with his ace-jack. Duda checked behind and took the pot with ace-ten.
