From early position, Ka Kwan Lau raised to 80,000. Then on the button, Maher Nouira three-bet all in for 465,000 chips. Lau asked for the count and called.
Maher Nouira: K?J?
Ka Kwan Lau: 4?4?
The tournament director froze the action, waiting for the second table to end its hand. And it took a long time, so Nouira's friends had time to gather behind him to support him.
Finally, both players flipped their cards, and Nouira hit a pair of jacks on the flop 5?J?7?. The 7? came on the turn, and Nouira's supporters cheered when the river 2? was revealed.

Igor Yaroshevskyy opened under the gun to 80,000, but saw Vinicius Pinheiro in the hijack three-bet to 235,000.
Action came to Eric Sfez in the big blind, who seemed to struggle to make a decision. He used a few time banks and eventually four-bet to 1,550,000, keeping a single blind with him. Yaroshevskyy folded, then Pinheiro shoved, and Sfez called.
Eric Sfez: 8?8?
Vinicius Pinheiro: K?J?
Pinheiro was quite happy to see that he was going to play a flip to try to eliminate Sfez. But the Frenchman wasn't dead yet and he doubled up on the Q?9?5?Q?6? runout.

Maher Nouira opened to 80,000 from middle position and received calls from Vlad Darie in the cutoff, Francesco Pilato on the button and Ka Kwan Lau in the big blind.
The flop came A?Q?Q? and action checked around to Pilato, who bet 75,000 in position. Lau folded and Darie folded while Nouira made the call.
