How the action went is unknown, but all of Fabio Lo Grasso's 31,000 chips had gone into the middle preflop with Stefano Puccilli making the call to put him at risk.
Fabio Lo Grasso: A♣K♦
Stefano Puccilli: K♥K♣
The flop of 9♠5♣6♠ kept Puccilli ahead with his kings. However, the A♠ turn propelled Lo Grasso into the lead. Puccilli couldn't the one-outer on the river as the 8♣ appeared, and he had to send around half of his chips over to Lo Grasso.
