Cary Katz opened with a raise under the gun to 43,000 and action folded around to the big blind where Stephen Chidwick called.

The flop was {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and Chidwick checked. Katz put out a bet of 50,000 and Chidwick called.

On the {A-Spades} turn, Chidwick checked again. This time Katz put out 175,000. Chidwick thought for a bit then called.

The river was the {K-Hearts} and Chidwick checked for a third time. Katz dropped into the tank, using one time extension before he tossed out on black T500,000 chip. Chidwick didn't take wrong to release and Katz scooped the pot.
