: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Ayyoub took some time before shoving his larger stack, with Hursoz quickly getting out of the way. Ribeiro took a minute before flipping up J♠J♦ as he folded.
Michel Habib: 9♣9♦ 
Sami Ayyoub: Q♠Q♦
Ayyoub's superior pocket pair held through the 2♦6♥2♠A♥2♥ runout, sending Habib to the rail.
