With a sizeable pot already built, John Doe K checked the 6♥A♠6♣8♥ turn from the big blind and Anthony Khouzami followed suit on the button.
Doe then moved all in after the A♥ river, with Khouzami calling quickly to put himself at risk.
Khouzami turned over A♣2♦ for a full house, earning the full double as Doe showed down J♥J♦.
Ettore Cuzzone raised to 11,000 in the cutoff and Nejat Erman called in the small blind. Andrei Spataru then three-bet to 45,000 in the big blind and only Cuzzone called.
The flop came K♥J♦4♦ and Spataru led out for 27,000. Cuzzone instantly shoved forward a tower of white 25,000 chips to put Spataru all in.
Spataru had around 160,000 remaining and tanked for a moment. Another player at the table eventually called the clock.
"I thought for 30 seconds," Spataru protested.
"It's no problem," Cuzzone told him, and the time request was called off. Spataru then folded and Cuzzone showed him the K♣.
"Thanks for showing. I had queens," Spataru said.
A player in the hijack raised to 11,000 and Boris Tabiyev called on the button before Svetoslav Nikolov moved all in for 111,000 in the small blind. The hijack quickly folded, while Tabiyev confirmed the amount before calling.
Svetoslav Nikolov: A♦J♥
Boris Tabiyev: 7♠7♦
The 5♣10♦8♦ flop kept Tabiyev's pair in the lead, but Nikolov hit the A♠ on the turn to make a pair of aces. The river was the K♠ and Nikolov doubled up.
A player raised to 10,000 in early position and was called by Paul Runcan on the button and Hassan Nashar in the big blind.
The flop came A♣5♠6♠ and the early-position player bet 20,000. Both opponents called and the 3♣ fell on the turn.
The early-position player bet another 45,000 and only Nashar called this time. The K♠ fell on the river and Nashar led out for 100,000.
"The hand before I folded aces to a flush," Nashar's opponent said.
"Are you saying you have aces right now," Nashar replied.
"You seem like a good player," the early-position player added as he flashed A♦Q♦ and mucked. Nashar showed the A♠, followed by the 2♠ for the nut flush as he took the pot.

Around 200,000 was already in the middle as Ettore Cuzzone and an opponent went heads-up to a flop of 2♦7♠A♦. Cuzzone then bet 35,000 from under the gun and his opponent called on the button.
The turn was the 3♣ and Cuzzone bet 80,000. His opponent quickly called and the 8♥ fell on the river. Cuzzone then bet 180,000.
The button spent a few minutes counting out his stack before sliding his cards into the muck. Cuzzone showed him the A♥ as he took the massive pot.
