Robert Varkonyi opened to 1,000 from middle position and found one caller in Shunsuke Tokoo in the big blind.

A river showdown between WSOP bracelet winners took place shortly after the dinner break.
Action picked up on the river after a player at the table waved over PokerNews to witness what was happening.
The board showed 3♣5♥A♥4♥Q♠ and two-time bracelet winner Alexandru Papazian bet 75,000 into six-time bracelet winner Shaun Deeb. The two players were sitting next to each other, and Deeb had position on Papazian’s immediate left.
Deeb only had approximately 19,500 and he was at risk with a call if he was wrong. Deeb went deep in the tank, alternating counting out his chips multiple times and looking at the board.
“Take your time,” a player said across the table to Deeb.
Papazian was motionless and didn’t say a word.
After an extended period of time elapsed, Deeb picked up his cards and showed Papazian A♠ before tossing his hand to the dealer.
Papazian moved his cards forward and gave Deeb permission to turn over one of them. Deeb reached down and turned over the Q♥.
