Nacho Barbero completed before Ryutaro Suzuki two-bet. Barbero called, and called Suzuki's bet on fourth street as well.

Barbero took the betting lead on fifth street and led out. Suzuki called, as did he when Barbero continued firing on sixth street.

Without much thought, Barbero tossed in a final bet on seventh street. Suzuki looked him up, but his three kings were no match for the flush of Barbero.

"Were you rolled up?" Barbero asked Suzuki after the hand, to which Suzuki gave an affirmative answer.

It checked to Klein on sixth who bet, Turner called, Keller folded, and Eslami called.

Seventh street checked through as Klein revealed J♠5♣3♠ in the hole for two pair, threes and twos, which were somehow enough for the victory as he dragged a massive pot once the others mucked.
