Picking up the action on the flop with Jean-Noel Thorel and Matthias Eibinger heads-up in a pot, the flop read 
with over 100,000 in the middle already. After a series of raises, the two players got all of the chips in the middle with Thorel being the player at risk for 925,000.
Jean-Noel Thorel: 
Matthias Eibinger: 
Thorel was in the lead with a pair of aces but Eibinger had outs with a pair and straight draw. The turn was the 
which changed nothing and the 
on the river only improved Thorel to a set of aces.
