The pot was sitting at around 75,000 when the board ran out 10♠4♦2♥6♥5♣. Dennis Weiss was first to act and put out a bet, putting Jorge Ufano to the test as he had just enough behind to continue.
Ufano went deep into the tank before eventually making the call for his tournament life.
Weiss tabled K♦9x for a king-high bluff, but Ufano revealed K♥J♣, also king-high but with the superior kicker. That was enough to win the pot and secure a dramatic double-up, drawing clear reaction from the table after the hero call.
