Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Eider Cruz raised to 240,000 in the cutoff and Ricardo Nakamura called in the big blind to go see the flop 5♠A♥K♥. Nakamura check-called Cruz's continuation for 150,000.

The 5♣ turn went checked and a 9♣ appeared on the river. Nakamura led out for 315,000 and after a short thinking, Cruz called. Nakamura tabled K♠8♣ for a pair of kings but it wasn't good enough to win the pot as Cruz showed A♠J♦ for a pair of aces.
