Alex Brenes

Alex Brenes has the button.

He completes the blind, and Jose Miguel Espinar knocks the table, content to see a free flop.

It shows up {8-Spades} {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}. Espinar bets out 65,000 chips, and Brenes calls.

Fourth street comes the {2-Hearts}. Espinar keeps the heat on with another bet, this time pushing out "Ciento ochenta," -- 180,000. Again, Brenes flat-calls.

The river is the {6-Diamonds}. Espinar slows down now, checking it over to Brenes. "Tres cientos," -- 300,000 goes into the middle. Espinar nods and makes the call. Brenes tables {A-?} {9-?} and his triple aces are the winner. Espinar mucks his hand and sends a big chunk of chips across to his opponent.

Stalemate

We're back to playing tennis here at the final table, as the chips are being passed slowly back and forth from one end of the table to the other. Once again, few pots are being hotly contested, although flops are becoming common occurrances once again.

Even Steven

Alex Brenes has won a few recent small pots, and he has worked his way back to being dead even with his opponent. Both men currently sit with right at 1.75 million checks in front of them.

Short Break

The tournament clock has been paused while we take a 10-minute break. During the break, the white T25,000 chips are going to be put into play.
