Landi Finds an Ace to Double
Simon Lofberg raised to 600,000 under the gun and Ivan Poroliev called in the big blind.
Lofberg continued for 425,000 on the A♠J♣6♠ flop and Poroliev called. Both players checked down the Q♥ turn and 8♥ river, and Poroliev turned over 10♦10♥, but Lofberg had A♥9♥ for a pair of aces to win the pot.
Adrian Ziemichod then raised to 600,000 under the gun and Matthias Auer called in early position. Amato Landi moved all in for 3,025,000 on the button and Ziemichod folded, but Auer snap-called.
Amato Landi: A♥J♥ 
Matthias Auer: Q♣Q♠
Landi had run into Auer's queens and was looking for an ace to survive. He missed the K♠4♠6♦ flop, but the A♣ fell on the turn and his boisterous rail again erupted in celebration.
The 8♠ came on the river and Landi doubled up yet again.
