Umberto Zaffagnini bet 25,000 from the hijack on a flop of K♠9♣2♠ and Michael Uguccioni raised to 125,000 in the big blind. Zaffagnini called and the turn came the 10♠.
Uguccioni then bet another 125,000 and Zaffagnini again called. The river was the 7♦ and Uguccioni slid forward a tower of green 25,000 chips for a bet of 500,000. Zaffagnini snap-called.
Uguccioni turned over A♠3♥, while Zaffagnini had Q♥J♣ for a straight to win the pot.
After the hand, a tournament official arrived at the table to warn the players about taking too long each hand, threatening to reduce their time to act to five seconds if it continues.
"That's why there's a time bank. You can't do that," Leo Worthington-Leese protested.
A few hands later at this table, Petrus Brandt got in his last 370,000 from the big blind and was up against Alexandros Michas in the small blind.
Petrus Brandt: A♠A♦ 
Alexandros Michas: A♣J♠
Brandt had woken up with aces and hit the last one in the deck on the A♥Q♥3♠ flop to make top set. The rest of the board ran out 4♦Q♦ and he doubled up.
