Enrico Romero raised to 200,000 in early position. The action then folded to Simon Buchta in the big blind, who defended.
Buchta decided to lead out for 145,000 on the 7♦8♠4♥ flop and was called by Romero.
The 7♥ turn and 8♦ river were checked by both. Buchta shook his head and tabled J♦10♠ for the two pair on the board with a jack kicker.
Romero had the better kicker with A♦6♦ and raked in the small but important pot.
