Well that was sudden. On the very next hand, Chiab Saechao limped in under the gun, and action folded all the way around to Nicolas Vaca-Rondon. He moved all in for around 200,000, and Saechao insta-immediately-snap called, and yelled "aces"!

Saechao: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Vaca-Rondon: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}

The flop brought a couple scary looking cards, but it was safe for Saechao, coming {k-Spades}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. Saechao told the dealer to keep it high, and the {j-Hearts} on the turn was right in like with his request. The river was the {2-Spades}, and Saechao increased his chip lead, while Vaca-Rondon went to the rail.
