Sheddy Siddiqui raised UTG+1 to 50,000, Abhishek Panda called from the small blind, and Neil Zonenashvili called from the big blind.

The flop came Ac9h5c, and it checked to Siddiqui, who bet. Panda folded, and Zonenashvili check-raised. Siddiqui moved all in, and Zonenashvili called all in for 725,000 with 5s5d for a set of fives.

Siddiqui turned over AdKh for a pair of aces, and Zonenashvili needed his hand to hold to stay alive.

The turn card was the As, giving Zonenashvili a full house, but Siddiqui outs to a higher full house with trip aces.

The river card was the 6c, and Zonenashvili won the pot with his full house, fives full of aces, to double up in chips.

Neil Zonenashvili  –  750,000  (30 bb)
Sheddy Siddiqui  –  1,625,000  (65 bb)
