Nolan Madene in the hijack opened to 500,000, the chip leader Jean-Côme Haye on the button three-bet to 1,475,000, then Raphael Davidou in the big blind four-bet all-in for 5,360,000. Madene quickly folded, but Haye eventually made the call.
Raphael Davidou: A♣Q♥
Jean-Côme Haye: J♠J♣
Haye stood up to film the action, only to see that Davidou flopped top pair on 5♠A♣8♣4♦6♦ to double up.
On the next hand, Haye raised to 525,000 from the cutoff. Mathis Livolant in the big blind jammed for 1,245,000 and Haye quickly called.

Jean-Côme Haye: Q♥8♥
Despite finding a flush draw on 3♠9♥J♣6♥, Haye saw Livolant double up after the A♦ river to lose his chip lead.
