Jonathan Aguiar opened to 40,000 from the button. Brandon Cantu three-bet all in for his last roughly 600,000. Aguiar snap called and the hands were revealed:

Aguiar: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}
Cantu: {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}

Aguiar sat with his hands clenched, looking up to the sky as the flop came. It was {8-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{A-Hearts} and Aguiar was able to take the lead by pairing his ace. The {3-Hearts} on the turn left Cantu with only two outs going to the river. It bricked out for him with the {7-Diamonds} and Cantu was forced to ship all of the chips to Aguiar.

Brandon Cantu will collect €159,459 for his second place finish.
