Victor Gonzalez bet 2,500 in middle position, which was called by Mauricio Sanchez in the small blind.

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Krystian Lisowski raised under the gun to 2,500, the player on the button called and Filip Wallenberg in the small blind squeezed to 9,500. Lisowski called and the button folded.

The flop came down A♠2♠A♣ prompting Wallenberg to slow down. Lisowski checked back and it was heads up to a turn.

The J♦ saw Wallenberg check-call a bet of 10,000 from Lisowski.

The river fell the 7♠ and Wallenberg checked again. Lisowski emptied the clip, moving all in and putting Wallenberg to the test for his remaining 32,600. Wallenberg snap-called.

Filip Wallenberg: A♦A♥
Krystian Lisowski: K♠J♠

Wallenberg's slow play came to fruition as the river improved Lisowski to the nut flush; no good against the quad aces of Wallenberg, who doubled up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Filip Wallenberg	106,700 58,700	58,700
