First to act, Anil Ozdemir raised to 180,000. On the button, Daniel Nietrzebka three-bet to 480,000. Sam Grafton thought around two minutes before four-betting to 1,120,000 from the small blind. Ozdemir quickly folded and Nietrzebka folded after twenty seconds.

In the next hand, Nietrzebka opened to 180,000, Grafton called on the button, and Ozdemir defended his big blind. All players checked the {J-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop. On the {10-Hearts} turn, Nietrzebka bet 300,000, Grafton called, and Ozdemir folded.

The river was the {3-Spades} and Nietrzebka bet 410,000. Grafton snap-called, forcing the Pole to show his {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades} for king-high. Grafton tabled {A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} and scooped up the pot.

"I call," said tablemate Anil Ozdemir, and Nietrzebka turned over {j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} for a bluff.
