In the final minutes of the night, Edwards Muñiz and Qasem Jamhour got involved in another big pot with chipleading implications.

Muñiz raised under the gun to 7,000, Jamhour reraised UTG+1 to 17,000, and Muñiz four-bet it to 47,000. Jamhour called.

The flop came KhJd4d, Muñiz bet 36,000, Jamhour raised to about 100,000, and Muñiz thought for a bit before he moved all in for 162,000.

Jamhour snap-called with JsJd for a set of jacks, but Muñiz turned over KsKc for a set of kings. Muniz was poised to double up into the chip lead unless the case jack appeared.

The turn card was the As, the river card was the 3s, and the set of kings held up for Muñiz to win the pot and double up to 412K, taking the chip lead.

Edwards Muñiz  –  412,000  (137 bb)
Qasem Jamhour  –  207,000  (69 bb)
