Cesar Garcia raised to 480,000 in the small blind and Gruffudd Pugh-Jones called in the big blind.
Garcia bet 550,000 on the A♣8♠5♥ flop and Pugh-Jones called. Garcia then bet 1,650,000 on the 10♠ turn, and Pugh-Jones again alled.
The river was the J♦ and Garcia checked to Pugh-Jones, who bet 5,010,000, leaving just 50,000 behind. Garcia grabbed his stack of time banks and tossed them into the middle as he went into the tank. He took a minute before tossing in a chip to signify a call, and Pugh-Jones showed A♥9♠7♥4♦ for the rivered straight. Garcia mucked A♦K♥J♥9♦.
