Paul Runcan made it 200,000 to go from the cutoff and Pedro Marques called in the big blind.
On the J♥10♣8♦ flop, Marques checked and Runcan bet 275,000. Marques called
A Q♠ on the turn saw Marques check again, then Runcan continued to fire with a bet of 325,000. Marques sat motionless for a while and just before his time expired, he called.
When the J♦ dropped on the river, Marques stared at the board for a while before he tapped the table, and Runcan knuckled back.
Marques showed Q♣10♥ for a pair of queens, but Runcan had rivered trips J♣4♣ to scoop the pot.
