Level 13
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Michael Falcon raised to 6,000 under the gun and Antonio Lopez called in middle position. James Hawkins then moved all in for 129,000 on the button, Falcon folded, while Lopez called to put Hawkins at risk.
James Hawkins: A♦7♦ 
Antonio Lopez: A♥K♣
Hawkins found himself dominated and at risk as the flop came 4♦6♥9♥. The 10♦ turn gave him straight and flush draws, while the 8♥ fell on the river to complete his straight.
"Vamos! I wanted to play tomorrow. They made me play today. Now we're on to Day 2. You need cojones in this game," Hawkins yelled out as he recorded all the action with his phone.
