Raul defended from the big blind after Salim Sefiat opened to 1,000,000 from the cutoff.
The flop of 5♥8♦8♣ was checked by both players, then Raul led out for 750,000 on the 9♠ turn. Sefiat called.
Raul checked the 10♣ river, so Sefiat seized this opportunity to bet 2,500,000. Raul went into the tank before folding 5♦4♥. He was right to do so as Sefiat had Q♦J♣ for a straight.
Two hands later, they faced each other again. Raul on the button with Q♣10♥ bet 800,000 on Q♥10♣J♠, then fired a second barrel of 750,000 on the 9♥ turn. Sefiat check-called both times.
