Alessio La Francesca opened to 25,000 in middle position and Manuel Fischer called in the hijack. Erik Seidel tossed in a call on the button, as did Jonathan Jaffe in the small blind.
Anatoly Zlotnikov took some time in the big blind before announcing all in. Action quickly folded back to Jaffe, who asked for a count. The dealer stacked up 970,000 chips, and Jaffe took a moment before sticking in the call.
Anatoly Zlotnikov: 3♥3♦
Jonathan Jaffe: 8♣8♥
Jaffe's pocket eights were well ahead and held through the J♦10♥K♠A♠7♣ runout to send Zlotnikov to the rail.
