There was about 18,000 in the pot in a heads-up battle between Franco Riccobon (under the gun) and Mukul Pahuja. The board showed 8s7d4h8d5d, and Pahuja had moved all in for 7,825. Riccobon spent a long while in the tank, then called to put Pahuja at risk.

Pahuja tabled 5s6s, winning the pot with an eight-high straight. Riccobon flashed his TsTd as he paid off the debt, and Pahuja doubled up.

Mukul Pahuja – 34,000
