Jordi Mataix shoved all in for 815,000 from under the gun as action folded to Carlos Esquerdo on the button who reshoved. The blinds got out of the way, leaving him heads-up with Mataix and looking to shorten the field.
Jordi Mataix: K?J?
Carlos Esquerdo: A?A?
Esquerdo showed down two aces and the A?9?6? flop left Mataix drawing only to running cards as Esquerdo made top set. The Q? turn gave Mataix a straight draw, but he couldn't connect with the 4? river and was eliminated in seventh place.

Both players checked to the J? turn, where Arpal led out for 125,000. Esquerdo called and the 4? fell on the turn.
