Action was heads-up to fifth street, where Brandon Cantu led out with a bet and Dario Alioto called. Cantu then checked sixth street, calling after Alioto bet.
Cantu checked again on seventh street, making the call when Alioto slid out one last bet.
"I think I get it all," said Cantu as the hands were tabled. Cantu's set of eights were good for the high, while Alioto could not beat his jack-low as he saw the entire pot shipped to his left.
