On the first hand of the final table, the chip leader Jovan Kenjic opened to 500,000 from early position with A♠Q♥ but nobody called.
Then it was Stoyan Madanzhiev's turn to initiate the action. He limped from the cutoff with A♣2♣, so Michel Molenaar only had to check his option with K♥5♣ to discover a flop of 3♠10♦2♥.
Madanzhiev bet 250,000 but Molenaar check-raised to 800,000. It didn't take long for Madanzhiev to fold.
