Karen Nazarian opened under the gun to 11,000 before Steve O'Dwyer called on the button and it folded to Ignas Jasinevicius in the small blind. He took a moment and then put in a three-bet to 45,000.
Action was back on Nazarian who announced he was all in having both players covered. O'Dwyer quickly got out of the way and Jasinevicius snap called.
Ignas Jasinevicius: K♦K♣
Karen Nazarian: K♠K♥
The players would chop the majority of the time but the dealer put out a sweaty flop of Q♥J♥2♥ and instantly Nazarian started calling for the heart. The 2♠ turn was safe and the 7♣ was able to help Jasinevicius avoid a complete disaster.
They would chop it up and gain a few chips in the process.

A flop 9♣10♠Q♥ was fanned out in a 75,000 pot between Pablo Silva and Viktor Ustimov. Silva bet 16,000 from the hijack and Ustimov made the call from the cutoff.
The 2♣ turn saw Silva increase his sizing to 35,000, and another call followed from Ustimov. When the Q♠ river hit the felt, Silva jammed all in for 120,000 and sent Ustimov into the tank. After a bit of thought, Ustimov opted to let his hand go, granting the significant pot to Silva.
