At this stage of a Day 1, it is not uncommon for a player to take extra risks, hoping to send a bigger stack to Day 2. Donald Abdelhay took advantage. He limping from the under-the-gun position, and when Pascal Monarque raised to 7K from the small blind, the bet was called from the big blind, then 3-bet by Abdelhay to 12K.
Both players called. Monarque open-shoved the flop, and only Abdelhay called, instantly.

Monarque, having flopped a pair, tried to steal the 40K pot, but was caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Abdelhay adds about 75K to his large stack.
