Jean-Noel Thorel: 4♠4♥
Defeng Chen: J♠J♣
Chen made a set on the J♥8♥7♥ flop, but Thorel took control on the A♥ turn. The excitement wasn't over, as Chen filled up on the 8♣ river to send Thorel crashing out.

Wesley Fei raised to 80,000 on the button, and Ryuta Nakai defended his big blind.
Nakai check-called when Fei continued for 60,000 on an A♥6♥Q♠ flop, and the same pattern followed on the 3♠ turn: Nakai checked, Fei bet 200,000, and Nakai called.
The 4♦ river was then checked through. Nakai tabled Q♦9♥, which was no good, as Fei flipped over A♦7♦.
Ryuta Nakai opened to 80,000 on the button, and called when Patrik Antonius moved all-in 395,000 from the small blind.
Patrik Antonius: 6♠6♥
Ryuta Nakai: K♠K♥
Antonius appeared to have been bailed out by the deck, as the 6♦4♦9♣ flop improved him to a set. He then upgraded to a full house on the 9♠ turn, but the 9♥ river downgraded his boat and saw Nakai reclaim his preflop lead. Instead of doubling up, Antonius was heading out.
Raul Lozano raised to 80,000 on the button, and called when Roberto Perez moved all-in for 375,000 from the small blind.
Roberto Perez: A♣6♣
Raul Lozano: A♠5♥
Perez not only survived, but the 2♦Q♥3♠7♠7♣ board kept his kicker in play, earning him a full double-up.
