On the 5♥ river Tot bet 180,000. Luo thought for roughly 45 seconds before flicking in a calling chip.

Alisa Sibgatova: Q♠Q♦
Anatoly Nikitin: A♠K♥

It was a classic preflop race that Nikitin got the better of on the A♦6♥3♦ flop. He remained ahead on the 10♥ turn and K♦ river to send Sibgatova to the rail in the first hand of the day and score nearly a full double up.
