Jorge Rios opened to 4,000 from early position before Sergio Brignoli made it 12,000 from the cutoff. Rios four-bet to 27,000 and was called.
Rios continued for 7,500 on the A?K?J? flop and snap-called for his last 40,000 after Brignoli moved all in as the bigger stack.
Jorge Rios: KxKx
Sergio Brignoli: Q?10?
Both players had huge hands, with Rios having a set of kings while Brignoli had flopped the stone-cold nuts.

PokerStars Team Pro Simon Wiciak opened to 4,000 from the cutoff and was called by Federico Baudissard from the button. Ilan Cohen folded from the small blind but his cards flipped over to reveal K?4?. Thor Morstol was in the big blind with around 45,000 and moved all in. Wiciak rejammed, and Baudissard folded for the cards to go on their backs.

Simon Wiciak: 9?9?
Despite seeing one of his outs removed, Mortsol liked his hand enough to go with it. However, he could not connect on the J?4?7?2?A? runout and was eliminated.

Heads-up on a flop of 9?10?6?, Andreas Vlachos bet 31,000 from middle position and Imre Karpati called in early position.
The turn was the 5? and Vlachos moved all in for around 50,000. Karpati took a minute before calling with 8?8?, but he found himself behind Vlachos' Q?Q?.
The river was the 7? and Karpati slammed the table after making a straight to win the pot. Vlachos laughed off the bad beat and made his way to the exit.
"Why couldn't I have a board like that when he had aces," Robert Schiffbauer said, reminiscing over his pot against Emanuel Flesner earlier.

Olivier Murrachioli was all in for 105,000 from the hijack, Fabrice Bigot shoved for his last 90,000 on the button, and George Tomescu had both opponents covered and at risk in early position.
Fabrice Bigot: A?K?
Olivier Murrachioli: A?A?
George Tomescu: A?K?
Murrachioli was poised to take the three-way all in with his aces as the flop came Q?K?7?. The turn, though, was the K? and both Bigot and Tomescu caught the last king in the deck to make trips.
The river was the 3? and Tomescu and Bigot split the pot while Murrachioli stopped to snap a photo of the board before heading for the exit.
"I think this is some of the most disgusting stuff I've seen. I think it's worse than aces over aces," Bigot said.
