Hand #70: Damian Salas limped the button and Joseph Hebert raised to 24,000. Salas folded.

Hand #71: Hebert raised to 20,000 from the button and Salas called to see a {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{k-Spades} flop. Salas checked, Hebert bet 10,000, and the Argentinean check-raised to 28,000. Hebert called and the dealer burned and turned the {5-Diamonds}.

Salas bet 52,000, Hebert called, and the {7-Clubs} completed the board on the river. Salas took his time before betting 139,000 and Hebert took a swig from his beer before making the call. Salas appeared to table a hand with a queen in it (unfortunately the cards were not brought fully into camera view), but whatever the case it was no good as Hebert had the {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for trips.
