Victoria Livschitz was all in and at risk for her stack of 45,000, but found herself in a promising situation.
Victoria Livschitz: A♣A♠
Costa Bataille: Q♠Q♦
Livschitz improved to top set on the A♦3♣K♣ flop to all but end the hand. Bataille did have a backdoor Broadway draw but that was swiftly eradicated when the 2♦ landed on the turn. An inconsequential 9♥ completed the runout and Livschitz doubled up.
Level: 12
Blinds: 1,000/2,000

With 20,000 chips in the middle on a board of 3♣10♦3♥, Joonas Helin bet 12,000, and Benjamin Gros called.
The 6♠ turn was checked through to the 2♥ river where Helin checked, Gros bet 32,000, and Helin called.
Gros showed Q♥10♥ for a pair of tens, and Helin mucked.
Fernando Santamaria raised to 3,000 from under the gun and Marcus Wuttke three-bet to 8,000 from the next seat. When it got back to Santamaria, he called.
On the 6♥A♥5♦ flop, both players checked to the 7♣ turn, which was also checked through.
A 5♥ landed on the river and Santamaria bet 14,000 and Wuttke called very quickly.
Santamaria showed 10♣9♠ for just ten-high. Wuttke had the winner with A♦10♥ for a pair of aces.
Mateus Mendes raised from middle position to 3,000. He was called by Espen Sandvik in the cutoff and Gabriel Chiva out of the big blind.
After Chiva checked the 4♠K♠6♣ flop, Mendes bet 5,000, which both Sandvik and Chiva called.
All three players checked the 8♦ turn and 4♥ river. Chiva was first to show and flipped over 8♠7♥ for just a pair of eights. This was good enough to win the pot as Mendes and Sandvik mucked.
