Daniel Grassi raised to 190,000 from middle position and Michael Mizrachi called from the button.
The flop came 
and Grassi checked. Mizrachi bet, Grassi check-raised all-in, and Mizrachi quickly called to put Grassi at risk.
Daniel Grassi: 
Michael Mizrachi: 
Grassi had flopped a boat but Mizrachi held trips and had a fist full of overcards he could hit to take the lead. The 
on the turn was one of them and the 
river further improved Mizrachi to tens full, so he took the pot to send Grassi to the payout desk.

With the action on the 
turn, Gonzalo Mercade checked from the big blind and Pete Arroyos fired 300,000, sitting two seats to Mercade's left.
Mercade took his time and then tossed in calling chips to see the 
land on the river. Mercade checked, Arroyos quickly potted to set his opponent all in for around 300,000, and Mercade instantly laid his hand down.
"Queens. Queens good? Maybe," Arroyos asked and then answered his own question before Mercade confirmed that Arroyos had him beat.
