Ivan Luca opened the action with a raise to 215,000 from the cutoff before Benjamin Pollak three-bet to 730,000 from the small blind. Ricardo Souza was in the big blind and moved all in for 1.8 million. Luca quickly folded and Pollak needed a couple of minutes to think before he called.

When the ace hit the flop to give Souza the lead, there was a loud cheer from the main stage. And when the board completed and Souza won the hand, the cheers erupted once more as he moved up to 3.9 million.
