After a raise and reraise before the flop, Pedro Martinez got the rest of his chips into the middle and was at risk against Dennis Weiss in the cutoff.
Pedro Martinez: A♣10♥
Dennis Weiss: 5♠5♦
Martinez found himself behind, but the J♠4♦Q♠ flop gave him additional outs with a gutshot straight draw. However, neither the 8♥ turn nor the Q♥ river improved his hand.
Weiss's pocket fives remained best, sending Martinez to the rail while adding even more chips to Weiss's growing stack.
