Czardy Rivera opened to 500,000, joined by both players on the blinds on flop 5♦ K♥ Q♠ . Rivera continued for 800,000 and saw Edgar Asehan make the call. Turn 4♥ went check check, revealing river J♠ . Checked to Rivera once more, he bet 1,000,000, and Asehan folds.

Jessie Leonarez opened to 600,000, called behind by Czardy Rivera. On flop Q♥ J♥ 8♦ , Rivera called for another 700,000, and went on to barrel 800,000 on turn 7♦ . Leonarez check calls yet folds after Rivera moved all-in on river 4♥ . Rivera shows straight T♦ 9♥ .
