Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em
Ryan Smith, who won two Circuit Rings during a single stop back in May 2022, raised to 20,000 from late position and Motoyoshi Okamura moved all-in from the small blind for 75,000, which Smith called.
Motoyoshi Okamura: A♥6♠
Ryan Smith: A♣K♠
Okamura would need to spike a six or some four-card straight or flush outs, but the final runout of 2♥7♦5♣K♥10♥ would send the 2021 champion of this event to the payout desk.
