Nicolas Barkusky opened the hijack to 500,000. In the cutoff, Nizar Comaty called, and Joan Crespi called in the big blind.
On the J♠6♠5♣ flop, Crespi checked to Barkusky who bet 500,000. Comaty then raised to 1,200,000. Crespi then three-bet all-in for 3,950,000, Barkusky rejammed, and Comaty folded.
Joan Crespi: 5♠5♥
Nicolas Barkusky: K♠K♦
Crespi was in great shape after flopping a set against Burkusky's overpair. the 3♠ on the turn brought a sweat as Barkusky picked up a flush draw. In dramatic fashion, the dealer peeled the Q♠ on the river to give Barkusky the winner and send Crespi to the rail.

Lucien Cohen opened to 550,000 from under the gun. On the button, Joan Crespi three-bet to 1,250,000. Cohen took some time before he put in the call.
The A♠9♦4♣ flop checked through to the 4♦ turn. Cohen checked again and Crespi put out a bet of 500,000 and Cohen snap-called.
The river was the J♦. Cohen checked for a third time and Crespi fired again for 750,000. Cohen quickly decided to just call.
Joan Crespi: A♦2♦
Lucien Cohen: 9♥4♥
Crespi flopped top pair and made the nut flush on the river but Cohen turned a full house. However, Cohen decided just to call on the river, but still won a sizeable pot.
"This hand is worth millions," Cohen would go on to elaborate.

Nizar Comaty opened the cutoff to 450,000. In the small blind, Henning Wendlandt jammed his remaining 2,075,000 into the middle, and Comaty snapped it off.
Henning Wendlandt: A♣K♠
Nizar Comaty: J♦J♣
It was a classic flip until the J♥9♣6♠ flop left Wendlandt drawing to running cards. He was drawing dead on the 4♣ turn and the Q♠ river was just a formality as the start-of-day chip leader exited in sixth place.
