: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Robert Burlacu moved all in for 250,000 in middle position and Daniel Henriques called under the gun.
Robert Burlacu: K♥J♥ 
Daniel Henriques: K♣K♠
Burlacu had run right into Henriques' kings and was at risk of elimination until the flop brought J♣J♠6♠, giving him trips. The board ran out 4♠7♣ and Burlacu doubled up.
"Wow. What a lucky man. I knew he was going to win. I know him," tablemate Alain Hajj said.
"How do you jam before the flop with king-jack, 11, 12 big blinds?" Hajj added.
"Now my mother won't give me money to play anymore," Burlacu replied.

Action was heads-up to the 2♠Q♠2♥7♣9♣ river, where Daniel Gavish checked in the small blind with just under 500,000 chips in the middle.
Simone Andrian slid out a full stack of white chips, totalling 500,000 on the button.
Gavish took a few minutes, opting to lay it down and Andrian moved over the two million chip mark.

Vasilii Kurguzov moved all in for his last 105,000 under the gun and Guy Gorelik reshoved for 350,000 in early position. The table folded around to Fausto Tantillo in the big blind who rubbed his hands together and peeled his cards, but he ended up turning over a three and mucking.
Vasilii Kurguzov: 9♦7♦
Guy Gorelik: A♦J♥
Kurguzov took the lead on the 10♠8♣7♥ flop with a pair of sevens, but the board ran out 8♠10♦ to counterfeit his pair and give Gorelik the pot, and the bustout, with his ace-kicker.

Kristaps Vismanis: A♣Q♥
Houman Sahafi: A♥A♦
Khusanbek Abdullaev: K♠K♥
Sahafi's pocket aces were in a great spot, holding through the 8♠10♣9♦7♠2♠ runout to cooler Abdullaev and send Vismanis to the rail.
