On Day 3, Davies eliminated Maue when the German jammed 11 bigs with ace-jack into the pocket jacks of Davies, which won after the board ran out ten-high. <\/span><\/p>\n

From there, Davies made a spectacular play against Pardo to take the overall chip lead, three-betting the turn with a straight draw to grab hold of over half the chips in play. <\/span><\/p>\n

Davies would later call off Pardo\u2019s king-high bluff with second pair to chip up to well over 4.2 million of the 6.8 million chips in play.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the next hand, Pardo and Jeremy Ausmus got in preflop with Ausmus calling off 14 bigs with king-nine from the big blind against the ace-six of Pardo. <\/span><\/p>\n

Ausmus couldn\u2019t improve and went home with $1.2 million, good enough for the third-largest score of his career.<\/span><\/p>\n

Heads-up play would only last two hands, with Davies going straight-over-straight with eight-seven against the four-three of Pardo. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Spaniard, understandably, couldn\u2019t find a fold and took home a career-best $1,900,000 to launch himself into third on Spain\u2019s all-time money list (Adrian Mateos, Sergio Aido) and 94th overall with $13.3 million in career live tournament earnings.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Davies, it was just his second-career SHRB cash, having finished 5th at Super High Roller Bowl Bahamas in 2019 for $1.02 million.<\/span><\/p>\n

Less than a week later, Davies would finish second in the \u20ac100,000 EPT Barcelona Super High Roller for \u20ac895,000, suffering a brutal bad beat in heads-up play against Kayhan Mokri, who won the event for a second-straight time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite Davies flopping top-two pair with jack-nine on a jack-nine-eight flop, Mokri hit a set of fives with a five on the turn, which saw all the money go in.<\/span><\/p>\n

Though Davies couldn\u2019t do the business, few will complain about making over $4 million in the span of a week and a half.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
