Heitor Maciel opened to 40,000 from early position with 8♥8♣ and Michael Uguccioni called from the big blind with Q♦2♦.
The flop came Q♣3♦A♥ and Uguccioni check-called a bet of 30,000 from Maciel to see the J♣ fall on the turn. Again Uguccioni checked, and again Maciel barreled as he threw out 150,000. Uguccioni let go of his queen.
In the next hand, Maciel opened A♦10♥ from under the gun and Uguccioni called in the small blind with 7♠6♠. John Woods also called from the big blind holding Q♥10♣.
The trio saw a flop of 3♥6♣9♠, which when it checked to Maciel, he bet 70,000. Uguccioni called and Woods folded.
A 4♥ hit the turn and Uguccioni elected to lead out for 45,000, which got Maciel to fold.

"My first set," Sboev said after the hand.

Firoz Mangroe opened to 30,000 from the cutoff but Cesar Garcia on the button three-bet to 90,000. Alfredo Zingales in the small blind fou-bet all-in for 420,000 and made Mangroe fold. Garcia went into the tank and eventually chose to call.
Alfredo Zingales: A♥A♣
Cesar Garcia: A♠J♥
Zingales slammed his phone on the table in anger when Garcia flopped trips on J♠J♣6♥. The 4♣9♥ runout completed the board and he was eliminated.
Elsewhere, Ramon Munoz was eliminated.
Ramon Munoz raised to 30,000 in middle position and Ramon Colillas called on the button, as did big blind Tan Le.
The flop came J♣9♥5♦ and Munoz bet 55,000. Both opponents called to the 5♠ turn, where Munoz bet another 140,000.
Colillas called, while Le finally took his cards out from under his toy monkey and returned them to the dealer. The 8♦ fell on the river and Munoz bet 200,000. Colillas quickly called once more.
Munoz showed A♣J♥ for two pair, but Colillas had Q♠Q♥ to win the pot.
Heads-up on a flop of 5♦7♣10♦, Nolan King bet 30,000 from middle position and Hugo Gotuzzo called in the big blind.
King bet another 70,000 on the 8♦ turn and Gotuzzo again called. The river was the K♥ and King bet 140,000 this time.
Gotuzzo quickly flipped over the 10♠ and tossed it into the muck, while King showed him the 9♣ as he took in the pot.
