Adalsteinn Karlsson

Hand 20: Emilien Pitavy woke up with Q Q in the cutoff and raised to 100,000. In the big blind, Adalsteinn Karlsson called with Q J , taking both players to the flop.

The dealer fanned out 6 Q K , giving Pitavy middle set and Karlsson a pair. Karlsson checked, and Pitavy fired 70,000 which Karlsson called, unaware of the trouble he was in.

The K turn paired the board and both players opted to check. Karlson now had two pair but was drawing dead to Pitavy's full house.

On the J river Karlsson shoved all-in and Pitavy snap-called.

After seeing Pitavy’s full house, Karlsson could only shake his head before exiting the stage in 7th place for PHP 949,000 (~$16,306).
