Around 15,000 was in the pot in a blind versus blind battle and the flop showing Q♦6♠8♥. Jonathan Khalifa then led out for 7,200 and Daniele Sacchi raised to 17,200.
"You don't have queens for sure. I don't put you on eights or sixes," Khalifa said before moving all in. Sacchi quickly called for around 40,000.
Daniele Sacchi: A♣Q♣
Jonathan Khalifa: K♣K♥
"Ace-queen? That's exactly the hand I put you on," Khalifa said. The board ran out 4♦4♣ and Sacchi couldn't improve against Khalifa's kings and was sent to the rail.
"Can I have a big hand, too? Or does it only work for you?" a tablemate joked with the suddenly big-stacked Khalifa after the hand.

Fintan Hand raised to 2,000 in early position before Claudio Tornetta three-bet to 6,000 in middle position. Ilia Fathi called in the big blind but then attempted to pull his chips back.
"I didn't see it," Fathi said, explaining he only meant to call Hand's raise and didn't notice Tornetta had reraised. Tornetta pointed out that he had already said call and his chips must remain in the middle.
"You're very eager for that extra 6,000," Hand said to Tornetta as he also called.
The flop came 9♠2♦Q♦ and Fathi moved all in for 6,500. Hand folded, but Tornetta snap-called.
Ilia Fathi: 9♣4♦
Claudio Tornetta: Q♣Q♥
Fathi had run into Tornetta's flopped set. "Diamonds are live," a tablemate said optimistically, but Fathi missed the 8♥ turn and 7♣ river and headed to the rail.
