In a single-raised pot to the 10 ♠️ 7 ♥️ 5 ♣️ flop, Sin Ren Chen checked with 10 ♣️ 7 ♦️ for two pair in the small blind. Masaki Saito bet 70,000 with A ♠️ A ♥️ and was check-raised to 205,000 to come along.

Chen jammed the 9 ♦️ turn and Saito called for the last 360,000.

The river was the Q ♥️ and that spelled the end for Saito.
