Fabian Rolli opened to 2,200 from the hijack and faced the cutoff and the big blind who both called.
After the big blind and Rolli checked the 10♠4♥10♦ flop, the cutoff bet 4,500. Rolli made the call to discover the 5♥ turn where both players checked.
On the J♥ river, Rolli led out for 14,500. The cutoff called, but his cards went into the muck after Rolli turned over 10♣9♣ for trips.

After he won a very big pot against Arnaud Mattern to reach 440,000 chips, Mathias Marza opened to 3,500 from early position. The hijack then three-bet all-in for 31,600, and all the other players folded back to Marza who quickly called.

Mathias Marza: 6♠4♥
Marza found a straight draw with the J♦7♦5♦ flop. But the 9♠6♥ runout didn't change the outcome of the hand and the hijack doubled up.
