Play has resumed after the 45-minute dinner break, and late registration is now closed with 65 entries.
Reigning champion Ion Oprea opened to 4,500 from the Cut-off. James Riley (Button) and Tom West (Big Blind) both made the call.
Action was checked to Riley on the 6♥A♣4♦ flop, and he bet 5,000. West folded before Oprea made the call, and the dealer revealed the Q♣ turn. Oprea check-called 7,500 from Riley, and both players then checked the 5♥ river.
Riley tabled A♠J♣. Oprea sighed, looked at his hand, then threw the cards into the muck. As Riley was stacking his newly won chips, Oprea’s gaze met the eyes of this poker.pro live reporter. “Two Cowboys,” he said. Yeehaw!
James Riley: 96,500
Ion Oprea: 57,500
