With the board showing J ♣️ 9 ♠️ 5 ♦️ Q ♠️ , David Erquiaga used one time bank and then bet 85,000 in the cutoff. Gary Thompson on the button used time as well and then jammed.

Several seconds passed before Erquiaga asked how much the shove was for. That was deemed to be for 490,000 and Erquiaga burned three time banks before folding.

Still 19 left on three tables, one more to break and balance.

Player Chip Count
David Erquiaga 945,000
Gary Thompson 700,000
