Edwin Dela Cruz limped the button with the A?6? and Alessandro Taranto checked with the 8?7?. The 6?5?5? flop saw Taranto check-call for 120,000 as both knuckled down the 3? turn. Taranto bet the 9? river for 600,000, the size of the pot.
Dela Cruz paid it off and then showed some visible frustration during the live stream session.
