The two biggest stacks at the feature table have butted heads already, with chip leader Luca Pagano and Vadzim Kursevich going at it in the first hand here on Day 5.
The hand began with Pagano making it 51k from the button and Kursevich three-betting from the big blind, making it 157k. Luca called and the flop fell 
.
Kursevich made a 155k continuation bet and Pagano flatted again. He fired another 275k bullet at the 
turn, but could not shake Pagano.
Finally, after the 
river, Kursevich bet 430,000 and again Pagano called with 
, but second pair was not good enough.
Kursevich held 
and after adding the chips to his stack, he moved into the chip lead above Pagano.
