We missed the preflop action but a big pot erupted at the feature table that thrust Junior Viana into the chip lead with over 500,000 chips. Viana was holding {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} against another opponents {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} for a pot worth over 250,000.

The board rolled out {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts} and that made Viana's pair of kings best and allowed him to take over the chip lead from his neighbor Sandro Santos, who has slipped from where he once was at the top of the leaderboard.
