Janik: 
Samejima: 
Samejima had flopped aces up but was way behind Janik's flopped set of jacks and needed an ace in order to preserve his tournament life. The turn gave both players boats but Janik's was bigger and Samejima still needed help with one card to come. The 
river changed nothing and Janik took the massive pot to send Samejima to the cage.
