Action was picked up on the flop in a pot between Nicholas Rigby in late position, Chris Trombley in the cutoff and and Sean Faraj in the small blind.

On the 1037 flop, action checked over to Rigby who bet 15,000 which both players called.

The action checked again to Rigby on the 2 turn and he bet 52,000 which once more both players called.

Faraj moved all in on the river A which had Rigby thinking for a little bit before tossing his hand into the muck, with Trombley following suit behind.

Faraj turned over J4 for just a missed flush draw with jack-high and he raked in the pot.
