Naum Barulia opened from under the gun to 125,000 with the blinds at 30,000/60,000. Ronald Woudstra moved all in from the small blind for 475,000. Barulia called. He had K J and had ran into the A A of Woudstra. The 9 9 4 flop gave Woudstra two pair and Barulia a flush draw. The 2 changed nothing, but Barulia binked the 7 river to eliminate Woudstra one away from the final table.
Simultaneously at the adjacent table, Nicolas Feuille was all in and at risk for 1,400,000. He opened from under the gun and got jammed on by Markus Hirttioe. Action folded around and Feuille called.
Feuille had A Q and Hirttioe had 7 7 . Feuille hit an ace across the 5 9 A 6 10 to secure a huge double up heading into FT play.
