The action was recapped by Hassan Atigh.
He opened to 185,000 with 4x2x, and called when Claude Mamalepot put in his last 250,000 with AxJx.

Marcin Rejmak: Q♥J♠
Belghiti Smail: A♣K♥
The K♠ was in the window, followed by the 9♠3♦ to leave Rejmak with a gutshot. It never arrived on the 5♣ turn or 3♠ river and he was eliminated on the first hand back from break.
Action was caught on the 8♣8♥Q♥K♦10♦ board, with around 1,500,000 in the pot.
Hassan Atigh fired out 320,000 from under the gun, which sent Samir Sebii deep into the tank from the button. He mulled over his options for several minutes before deciding to call.

The action was recapped by the dealer.
