Eduards Rakuss raised from under the gun and Hideki Nakamura three-bet in the cutoff. Rakuss called before both players took one apiece. Rakuss checked, Nakamura bet, and Rakuss called.
Nakamura patted after the first draw while Rakuss drew one. The Latvian check-called another bet and stood pat as well going into the final draw where he checked a third time. Nakamura showed no signs of slowing down his aggression and rapidly fired another bet.
Rakuss paid it off but Nakamura tabled 8x6x4x3x2x for the winner.
