Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Youcef Benzerfa opened to 45,000 from under the gun, and he was called by the player to his left. Paolo Barbati on the button shoved for 345,000, then Louis Linard in the small blind went into the tank. He decided to call.

When it was his turn to act again, Benzerfa moved all-in for 780,000. The player to his left said he folded JxJx, and Linard called Benzerfa's stack.

Paolo Barbati: 9♣9♥ All in
Youcef Benzerfa: Q♦Q♣ All in
Louis Linard: K♦K♥

Linard was on his way to take a massive pot, but Barbati flopped a set on the 8♥9♠6♦ to possibly triple up.

The 4♦ didn't change anything, but the Q♥ came on the river to give top set to Benzerfa who tripled up, while Barbati was eliminated.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

The board read 8♠A♥5♠A♥3♥ and at least 600,000 was in the middle, in a hand between [Removed:467] and Vladimer Gigolashvili.

Al Sayegh asked the dealer to spread the monster pot so he could see its true size, and then asked his opponent how much he had behind. Gigolashvili confirmed the sum was 200,000 and Al-Sayegh immediately announced he was all-in. Gigolashvili made the quick call.

Al Sayegh showed A♦5♣ for the full house, and Gigolashvili sighed and turned over K♥K♣ for two pair aces and kings, congratulating his opponent as he gathered his things and left the table.
