Khazret Nebezhev opened to 110,000 from the button and Gaetan Balleur moved all in from the small blind for 620,000. Nebezhev made the call with a covering stack to put Balleur at risk.
Gaetan Balleur: J♣10♣
Khazret Nebezhev: A♥10♥

Daniyar Aubakirov opened to 100,000 on the button and Samuel Fournier called in the small blind.
Fournier checked on the flop of Q♥K♦Q♣ and Aubakirov checked back. Fournier then bet 80,000 on the 5♥ turn and Aubakirov called.
The 6♦ river completed the board and Fournier bet a hefty 420,000. Aubakirov responded with a small raise to 830,000 to send Fournier into the tank.
"I have aces, my friend," Fournier said as he thought through a decision.
Fournier eventually called as Aubakirov showed a jack-high bluff with J♣10♥. Fournier did indeed have aces as he showed A♥A♦ to win the pot.
