The action was picked up on a flop of 7♦6♦3♦ with 75,000 in the pot. Dinh Nguyen in early position moved all-in for 123,000 and made a player in middle position fold, but Julien Mariani in the big blind called.
Dinh Nguyen: A♦K♥
Julien Mariani: 6♣3♠
Mariani flopped two pair, so Nguyen needed a diamond to complete is flush. That's what happened with the 5♦ turn, allowing Nguyen to double up after the 4♣ river.

On a board of Q♠J♥7♦Q♦2♣ with approximately 200,000 in the pot, Martial Lavezzi in the small blind moved all-in for 171,000.
Adrian Perez in the big blind went deep into the tank as he couldn't make a decision. The clock was called and at the end of the countdown, he called.
Martial Lavezzi immediately flipped over Q♥8♣ for trips. Perez had Q♣4♥ for trips as well, but with a lower kicker so Lavezzi doubled up.

With just five eliminations left before the money, Brian Paccaud found himself in a massive 1,000,000-chip pot on the button against Michel Rouvière in the cutoff.
Michel Rouviere: A♠A♦
Brian Paccaud: K♦K♥
“Put it,” Paccaud asked after the dealer spread a flop of Q♣2♠8♣ and a 4♠ turn, offering him no help.
But the river delivered salvation in the form of the K♠, giving Paccaud a set of kings. Rouvière, who was slightly covered with 470,000 chips, hit the rail just shy of the money as Paccaud soared past the million-chip mark.
