David Lichentin-Rubintin opened to 85,000, only to face a push from Daniel Pastor. Lichentin-Rubintin called, and they were on their backs.
Pastor: :::Ad :::5s
Lichentin-Rubintin: :::Kh :::Qh
Flop: :::2h :::5h :::9d, giving DLR a flush draw
Turn: :::Kd, making DLR a pair of kings
River: … :::As!
Pastor doubled up to roughly 1.2 million. DLR, meanwhile, was left with just 50,000 or so – just over one big blind. He moved in the next hand and got calls from both Giorgio La Iacona and Daniel Pastor before Quentin Lecomte reraised to 190,000 from the big blind. La Iacona called, Pastor folded, and they saw a flop.
Flop: :::Kc :::2h :::3d
Lecomte bet out 150,000 and La Iacona quickly folded. Lecomte and DLR went to showdown, and it was soon all over for DLR.
Lecomte: :::Ac :::Qs
DLR: :::Qc :::Js
Turn and river respectively: :::7c :::Td
