Andrian Reaches Eight Figures, Busts Sanaia
Pavel Svach raised to 125,000 in the cutoff. Simone Andrian defended his big blind and then check-raised on the 10♥8♥5♣ flop. Svach had continued for 175,000, which Andrian made 525,000 to go.
Svach called to the Q♦ turn, which they both checked. Andrian picked up the aggression again and fired 450,000 on the 4♦ river and was snapped off by Svach.
Andrian tabled Q♠J♦ for top pair, eliciting a sigh from Svach as he paid his opponent.
The next hand, Andrian open-jammed from the small blind and Alberti Sanaia instantly called off his stack of 1,200,000 in the big blind.
Alberti Sanaia: A♠K♣ 
Simone Andrian: 5♥5♣
"I think it's going to be hard for you," Andrian said before the 8♥K♠4♦ flop was dealt.
It turned out Andrian was right, as the 10♣5♦ runout rivered him a set, beating the flopped top pair of Sanaia. Sanaia immediately left the tournament floor as Andrian stacked up an enormous pile of chips.
