: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Josep Valls opened to 1,000,000 from the small blind and Jose Criado defended from the big blind.
The flop came A♣Q♠2♠. Valls bet 600,000 and Criado called.
On the 8♥ turn Valls bet 1,800,000 and was once again called by Criado.
Valls moved all in on the A♦ river, covering Criado who had 3,025,000 behind. Criado made the call.
Valls could only show 5♣2♣ while Criado tabled A♠4♥ for trip aces to score a full double up and reclaim the chip lead.
