: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Andrew Robinson in the cutoff opened to 5,000,000. Maximiliano Castagnini in the small blind raised all in, and Robinson called with the 950,000 he had left.
Andrew Robinson: A♠10♣
Maximiliano Castagnini: 8♠8♦
"Ocho," Castagnini's friends shouted, and they were heard as he hit a set on Q♦6♠8♥. But applauses were followed by a deep "ohhh" when Robinson hit a lucky straight with the J♦K♠ runout to double up.
