Matthew Waxman raised from under the gun and Humberto Brenes called on the button. Bradley Helm joined them from the big blind as they saw a flop of {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Helm checked, Waxman bet and Brenes raised. Helm got out of the way and Waxman just called. The {J-Clubs} turn went check check. Waxman bet the {10-Diamonds} river and Brenes just called. Waxman showed {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades} for a full house and Brenes mucked. Waxman was up to 830,000 after the hand while Brenes was down to 125,000.

Shortly after, Vladimir Shchemelev raised and Brenes made it three bets which got called. The flop came {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{2-Spades} and it went check bet call. The {K-Spades} was checked around and the players saw a free {7-Clubs} river. Shchemelev bet and when he got called by Brenes, he immediately mucked. Brenes showed {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} to win the pot.

Shortly after that, the board was {4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Spades}{A-Spades} and Francesco Barbaro checked. Shchemelev led out and was called by Brenes while Barbaro folded. Shchemelev bet when the {6-Diamonds} hit the turn and was called once more by Brenes. Shchemelev showed {6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs}, Brenes {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Shchemelev’s full house and low were good for three quarters of the pot.
