Oliviera: 
Piccioli: 
"I didn't suck out the entire tournament," Oliveira said, standing up from his chair. "I ask for my one time now. I don't know. I might flop a straight. I feel pretty confident."
The flop came down 
, keeping Oliveira live, at least for the time being. The turn was the 
, and Oliveira could only river a king to steal away the pot. But the river was the 
, and that sealed the double up for Piccioli, who was all in for 7,375,000 and doubled to over 15 million.

Michael Krasienko: 
Robin Hegele:
Krasienko needed to fade an ace, hearts or a combination of straight draws to survive, and the flop was 
, doing exactly that. The turn was the 
, and the two players' rails were yelling out for the card that they each wanted to see. The river brought the 
, sending a massive double-up to Krasienko, who has been patiently waiting for his spots.
