Pavlos Xanthopoulos: J♥6♣
Caballo was ahead and remained so after the 5♥8♥10♠ flop.
However the J♦ rolled off on the turn to give Xanthopoulos a pair of jacks, which improved further to trips on the J♠ river.

Michael Descote moved all in for his last 15,000 from middle position. Gil Aboodi, without looking at his cards, made the call.
Michael Descote: K♣K♠
Gil Aboodi: A♣6♣
Aboodi was surprisingly strong given he didn't know his own holding, but the 9♣6♦9♦3♠7♦ runout ensured Descote's double-up.
