Level 43 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Amadou Gassama opened to 1,100,000 under the gun, before Eric Viel three-bet jammed to 5,000,000 from the cutoff.

Eric Viel: A♥K♥ All in
Nassim Rais: K♠K♣

Viel had run Big Slick into cowboys in a cooler, and there was no unlikely reversal of fortunes on the 7♣6♣2♥4♠4♣ runout.

Level 41 : Blinds 150,000/30,000, 300,000 ante

A pot of 3,000,000 had developed in a hand between Yacine Adamon and Jeremy Cauchard, with the flop reading 4♦3♣2♣, in a battle of the blinds.

Yacine Adamon was all-in for 2,100,000 from the big blind, and after some thought, Cauchard called.

Jeremy Cauchard: 5♠5♣

It was a great flop for Cauchard, with an overpair and an up and down, and Adamon needed help.

The 3♠ turn was a brick, as was the K♠ river, and Adamon bumped fists with his foe before departing.
