With 250,000 in the middle on the {9-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop, Noel Rodriguez bet 85,000 from the small blind. Shankar Pillau called from the big blind.

Pillai called another bet of 130,000 on the {7-Clubs} turn.

Rodriguez then moved all in as the covering stack on the {j-Hearts} river. Pillai would go into the tank, using up all his remaining time extensions before deciding to call for his tournament life.

Rodriguez tabled his {a-Clubs}{a-Spades} for the nut flush while Pillai had the {q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Pillai then exited the PokerGO Studio in 14th place.
