With about 5,000,000 in the pot and the board reading 9d7s5sJh, Raffaello Locatelli checked from the big blind and Tommy Morgado bet 2,500,000 from the cutoff.

Locatelli check-raised all in with a covering stack and Morgado called all in for 4,775,000 with QsJs for a pair of jacks with a flush draw, leading Locatelli’s 6h5d for a pair of fives with a straight draw.

The river was the 4d, safe for Morgado to win what is thus far the largest pot of the tournament.
