Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Pablo Menezes bet 4,700 from middle position on a flop of 8♥7♦5♠ and Eric Medved called in the big blind, as did Leonidas Georgopoulos under the gun.
The turn was the 5♦ and Medved led out for 7,100. Both opponents called to the 6♥ river, where Medved bet 25,000. Georgopoulos quickly folded, but Menezes called for his last 14,300.
Medved showed A♠7♣ for two pair, but Menezes had 9♣9♦ to win the pot and double up.
