Joao Vieira opened to 27,000 in middle position and was called by Amir Mirrasouli on his left and Ka Kwan Lau in the big blind. The flop came {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{2-Spades} and Vieira continued for 50,000. Mirrasouli stepped aside by Lau made the call.

The turn brought the {7-Spades} and Lau checked again. Vieira sized up a bet of 155,000 and Lau thought for a minute before raising the pot. Vieira quickly shoved all in for 694,000 and Lau called.

Vieira turned over {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} for a set of kings which had Lau drawing to just one out with {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. The {9-Hearts} completed the board and Vieira held on for a full double up.
