Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Javier Tazon raised to 20,000 in the hijack, Julien Sitbon three-bet to 47,000 in the cutoff, and Tazon called.
The flop came Q♦5♦2♥ and Sitbon continued for 42,000. Tazon called and both players checked the 9♥ turn.
The river was the 3♦ and Tazon moved all in, having Sitbon's remaining 160,000 covered. Sitbon took a few moments before folding, and Tazon claimed the pot.
At another table, Lauri Saaskilahti moved all in for 414,000 in the small blind and Anton Suarez put him at risk on the button.
Lauri Saaskilahti: A♣Q♦ 
Anton Suarez: Q♠Q♥
Saaskilahti was looking for an ace to survive and found it on the A♥10♠3♣ flop, leaving Suarez with just one out. The rest of the board ran out 8♣5♣ and Saaskilahti doubled up.
