Batista was in good shape for a double-up versus only one overcard, and the 10♠3♣6♣4♦2♦ runout confirmed it.

The 102 players still standing in Day 1c have been sent on a 75-minute dinner break, with play scheduled to recommence at 10:00 p.m. local time.
After the first level of Day 1d, 65 players are currently registered, adding €61,100 to the prize pool.
In the very next hand after the controversy, Tomas Patka opened to 10,000 and was met with a three-bet jam to around 70,000 by Andrea Volpi.
Action folded to Dario Pieruzzini, who moved all-in for around 160,000, forcing Patka to get out of the way.
Andrea Volpi: 8♥8♣
Dario Pieruzzini: A♦K♥
Volpi was ahead in a race, and remained so after the 9♣5♥J♣ flop and J♦ turn. However the A♣ rolled off on the river to give Pieruzzini a pair of aces and send Volpi to the exits.
There has been some controversy here at Table 12.
Dario Pieruzzini had K♠K♥ and was all-in for around 75,000 and at risk versus Giorgio Soceanu who held A♦J♣.
The runout came 9♠6♠10♣7♥A♣, Soceanu thinking he had won the pot with a rivered pair of aces. However it became apparent that the dealer had, after exposing a card pre-flop, not used that card as the first burn card, and then mistakenly burned again.
The tournament director was called, the board was reconstituted and no ace appeared, with Pieruzzini taking the pot.
Soceanu was understandably furious with the turn of events, and much animated discussion in Italian took place, but he had little choice but to accept the position.
