Stanislav Zegal: A♠J♣
Mario Colavita: K♥J♥
The flop came K♦A♦10♠. Zegal flopped two pair and Colavita had a gutshot.
The turn 8♥ and river 2♦ did not change anything and Zegal survived.

Michael Baltierra on the button jammed for 10,500,000. Aaron Mermelstein in the small blind went into the tank, and called for his last 9,400,000.
Aaron Mermelstein: A♥8♣
Michael Baltierra: A♣J♥
"No eights", asked Baltierra's friends in the rail. They were heard, as on A♠2♣6♥J♠5♥, Baltierra hit two pair to eliminate Mermelstein.

Aaron Mermelstein has been one of the most active players at his table, raising preflop in many recent pots. He opened once again from the cutoff.
Mike Matusow on the button folded, and Mario Colavita went all in from the small blind for 11,800,000. The big blind folded and Mermelstein snap-called.
Mario Colavita: A♣K♣
Aaron Mermelstein: J♥J♦
The flop was 8♣6♣3♦. Mermelstein was still ahead, but Colavita flopped a flush draw along with his two overcards.
The turn was the A♠, a terrible card for Mermelstein and he was down to one out, the J♠. The river was the 4♥ and Colavita doubled up.
