Adam Hendrix jammed the small blind for 11.8million and Markku Koplimaa in the big blind asked for a count, then made the call.

Adam Hendrix: {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Markku Koplimaa: {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

Hendrix's rail, which includes Stephen Song, Yaser Al-Keliddar and Ali Imsirovic, asked for a ten and instead saw a queen appear on {q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}. The {a-Hearts} turn was a sweat, but the {5-Diamonds} river kept Hendrix in the running.

Once the action folded to Markku Koplimaa in the small blind, he eyeballed the stack of Matias Arosuo, who had some seven big blinds behind after he had paid the big blind ante. Koplimaa moved all in, Arosuo checked his cards and called.

Matias Arosuo: {3-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Markku Koplimaa: {j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

"Good luck," Koplimaa wished and hit an additional gutshot on the {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop. The {10-Spades} turn instantly improved the Estonian to a straight and Arosuo was left drawing dead, the {4-Hearts} river was a formality.

Arosuo shook hands with Koplimaa and headed to the payout desk in order to collect €212,100 for his efforts. Koplimaa continues his clinic display on the final day so far and enters the final three with an overwhelming lead.

[Removed:328] opened the button to 2.5 million and Markku Koplimaa called in the big blind. They checked the {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{q-Hearts} board and Koplimaa tabled {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}, [Removed:329] chopped with {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

One hand later, Koplimaa limped in and Matias Arosuo checked in the big blind. Koplimaa bet the {k-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Spades} turn for 1 million and the {7-Spades} turn for 2.5 million, which Arosuo called. After the {q-Clubs} river, Koplimaa bet 5 million and Arosuo reluctantly folded.
