The player on the button made the call before watching Keshavarzi count out a check-raise to 4,500.

The player in middle position quickly folded but the button player wasn't so quick to release his hand. After a moment of thought, they eventually decided on an all-in and slid their stack into the middle. Keshavarzi quickly called, putting his opponent at risk and headed to a runout.

Button: A♥10♦
Maz Keshavarzi: 4♠5♠

The 4♣ turn meant that the button was drawing dead headed to the meaningless 2♠ river as he stood up to make his way towards the rail.

De La Cruz Wins with No Showdown

A player in late position raised to 1,800 and found a call only in Antonio De La Cruz from the button before seeing the flop come Q♥10♦10♣.

Both players quickly checked before the dealer burned and turned the 9♠.

The late position player checked over to De La Cruz who decided the check was no good as he tossed out a bet of 3,000. His opponent called and they both headed to the 9♥ river.

The late position player checked once more and again, De La Cruz reached for chips and tossed out a single 5,000 chip which got a snap-fold from his opponent as he secured the pot without need for a showdown.
