Matteo Montanari was all in for 130,000 from the small blind and up against Manuel Ledesma in the big blind.
Matteo Montanari: 9♦9♥ 
Manuel Ledesma: A♠Q♦
The flop came 9♥6♥8♦ and Montanari spiked a set to take a big lead in the pot. The rest of the board ran out K♠A♣ and Montanari doubled up.
Montanari raised to 12,000 on the button the next hand, Ledesma put in his last 40,000, and Montanari called.
Manuel Ledesma: A♥10♦
Matteo Montanari: Q♦9♦
Montanari hit a pair on the K♥9♣8♦ flop to take the lead, then improved to two pair on the Q♠ turn. Ledesma was left hoping only for a straight to stay alive, but he missed the K♣ river and the defending champion was sent to the rail.
