Joachim Haraldstad opened to 200,000 in early position with 9♣8♣ and Mike Watson three-bet to 650,000 on the button with A♦J♠. The blinds folded and Haraldstad also gave up his holding.
A couple of hands later, Samy Boujmala raised to 200,000 under the gun with A♥J♥ and Leonard Maue three-bet to 450,000 in the cutoff with A♣2♣. Boujmala gave up the better hand and slipped to nearly 20 big blinds.
