Niveau 43 : Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante

Darrick Arreola went all in from the small blind against Max Kingstone in the big blind. Kingstone was down to just a few big blinds and had about half his stack in with the big blind and ante. Both players said they hadn't bothered looking at their cards, as Kingstone was too short to fold and Arreola was after another scalp.

Darrick Arreola: 6♦8♦
Max Kingstone: 5♥3♥

Both players happened to wake up with suited connectors but when the board ran out J♦7♠Q♣9♣4♦ Arreola was ecstatic to tell his rail that he had won with eight high, a rather unlikely feat.

Kingstone played with a tremendous amount of patience and precision but won't be taking home the gold today.

Niveau 42 : Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante

Colin Robinson and Darrick Arreola decided to run five cards as they waged a raising war preflop. It turned out to be a pair versus pair confrontation.

Colin Robinson: 7♣7♥
Darrick Arreola: 5♠5♣

Arreola was far behind but came into the final table with quite the chip lead, so this pot would be far more crucial to Robinson.

The flop rolled, 2♣K♣10♣ and Robinson remained in the lead. Robinson locked up the hand on the turn when the 7♦ peeled he made a set followed by a bit of overkill with the 7♠ as Robinson made quads the table released a collective, "Ohhhh!"
