The board read {j-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} on the turn. From the button Michael Addamo bet 60,000 into a pot of around 90,000. Aleksejs Ponakovs called from the big blind.

The river was the {k-Diamonds} to put three diamonds on the board and complete a straight draw. Addamo took a time extension before announcing a bet of 160,000. Ponakovs went into the tank and studied the three to a flush/straight and paired board. After a minute and twenty seconds based on the dealer's clock, Ponakovs called.

Addamo said "You win" and tabled the {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Ponakovs showed the {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} for the winning hand as he was complemented on the call by a couple of tablemates
