Naveiro Eliminates Higgins
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Justin Saliba raised to 20,000 from under the gun to open the action. Simon Higgins opted to throw in his final 28,000 to go all-in from middle position. It folded to Inigo Naveiro on the button, who chose to raise it to 100,000. Saliba gave it some thought, but chose to fold to make the pot heads up between Higgins and Naveiro, with Higgins at risk.
Simon Higgins: K♠J♣
Inigo Naveiro: K♣Q♥
Naveiro had Higgins dominated going into the runout. There was no drama as the board came out 5♣7♠5♠2♥4♥ to award Naveiro the pot.
