Cervantes Beats Trofimov in Showdown
Level 28
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Jaime Cervantes raised to 160,000 with the 
and Dragos Trofimov defended 
in the big blind, spiking a pair and straight draw on the 
flop. Both players checked and the 
followed on the turn, which was checked through once more.
The 
river was checked by Trofimov and Cervantes mulled it over for a few seconds before leading for 220,000 into 440,000. Trofimov paid it off and Cervantes caught a break to claim some urgently needed pot.
