According to other players at the table, Joao Vieira had bet all but one blind in a previous hand against Corentin Ropert and was then raised to fold.

In the next hand, he was all-in preflop and awaited his fate while Ropert in the small blind and Arthur Conan in the under-the-gun position played for the larger side pot.

Ropert bet the A44A turn for 3,700 and Conan called. Another bet of 4,000 followed on the 2 river and Conan folded. Ropert tabled the AQ and Vieira flashed the 85 before heading out.

Two Pair Takes it For Dziubdziela

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Robert Schulz opened to 1,600 on the button and was called by Marcin Dziubdziela in the small blind.

Both players checked on the 4K6 flop and then Dziubdziela check-called a 3,200 bet from Schulz on the A turn.

The Q completed the board and Schulz fired approximately 7,000 into the middle. Dziubdziela instantly called and Schulz turned over A10 for a pair of aces.

They were no good, however, against the KQ of Dziubdziela for two pair and he collected the pot.
