Action was picked up on the river of K♠9♠5♣5♥4♥ with around 225,000 in the pot. Jon Kyte had checked from the hijack to Daniel Rezaei on the button.
Rezaei used a time bank before declaring 115,000. Kyte then used most of his 30 seconds before raising to 285,000. Rezaei was put in the blender and he deployed two more time banks. He appeared to be hating this spot and ultimately decided to fold.
Rezaei claimed to have folded a king and Kyte windmilled the 6♠6♥ across the table. "Nice bluff" said Rezaei.
Kyte added "I'm not doing that again ever in my life."
Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 21st episode, Connor speaks with Survivor legend Boston Rob, aka Rob Mariano, about growing up near Fenway Park, learning poker at the age of 6, studying psychology at Boston University, applying for Survivor and winning Season 22, his recent appearance on Deal or No Deal Island and filming an upcoming season of The Traitors.
Boston Rob also revealed a story about Costa Rican authorities raiding a mansion known to host high-stakes poker games during a 2006 filming that included Daniel Negreanu, Josh Arieh, David Williams, Michael Mizrachi and actress Cheryl Hines.
"(Gambling mogul) Calvin (Ayre) had a big party at the house, and they came in guns drawn," he said. "And we were fine, but we all had to stay at the party until they checked our passports and everything. I think it was a little bit of a shakedown. But we had a good weekend."
Igor Yaroshevskyy opened to 12,000, and received calls from Christian Pedersen on the button and Robert Heidorn in the big blind.
On the A♣10♠4♥ flop, action was checked to Yaroshevskyy, who fired out a bet of 15,000. Both of his opponents called.
That was the end of the action as the 6♥ turn and 3♠ river were checked through. Pedersen tabled Q♦10♦ for a pair of tens, and that was good enough for the pot.
At another table, Teun Mulder was seen exiting the tournament area after busting.
