On the J♠8♦4♣ flop, Julien Sitbon bet 25,000 from the big blind and Martin Zamani raised to 60,000 from the button. Sitbon three-bet to 130,000, and Zamani called.

A 5♣ landed on the turn and Sitbon bet 125,00, which Zamani called.

The 2♠ completed the runout and Sitbon shoved for Zamani's remaining 236,000. Zamani took a while and began trying to talk to Sitbon. In the end, Zamani put in the call.

Sitbon showed an overpair with Q♥Q♣ to win the match as Zamani could only muster up second pair holding 8♣6♥.
