Before the blinds went up:

On the river with a board of Ac7s6c5sTh Rafael Reis moved all-in, having Hector Zayas Vasquez well covered.

After some time in the tank, Hector called, showing AdTd for two pair.  Rafael mucked, saying “I was bluffing”.  Hector doubled up to about 1.6 million while Rafael’s stack dropped to about 1.2 million.

A short time later, the same two players were all-in pre-flop.  Hector was ahead with pocket Aces and Rafael’s pocket Queens were in need of help.

The board ran out A Q 6 J K and Hector took the last of Rafael’s chips.  He’s up to about 2.5 million and way out in front of the field.

Rafael Reis finished in 25th place, earning $1,100.
