"We've got a big pot brewing," said host Robert Williamson III, using one of his trademark phrases. He was right. Still in the PLO round, Team Vietnam, in the person of Kido Pham, opened pre-flop with a raise. Team Brazil's Leandro Pimentel three-bet; Pham quickly four-bet. That put Brazil to a tough decision. Pimental called for assistance from team captain Juliano Maesano. The two conferred for about thirty seconds before Brazil moved all in. Pham snap-called, creating a huge pot.

Kings against aces, but kings against aces doesn't play out the same way in PLO that it does in hold'em. With four cards to choose from, anything could happen. Brazil made a pair on the flop, . The turn was a blank for both side, but when the river came Brazil made an unlikely two pair of tens and deuces to win the pot.

When the stacks were counted down, Vietnam had Brazil covered. Vietnam still has chips; Brazil now has renewed life.
