Brandon Navarrete limped under the gun for 400,000, Alcides Gomez raised from middle position, and Navarette called all in for 600,000 with 8h2d.

Gomez turned over Ac10c, and Navarrete needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Ah9s7d6d4h — Gomez paired his ace on the flop, Navarette turned an open-ended straight draw, and the river card was a blank. Gomez won the pot with his pair of aces to eliminate Navarrete in ninth place.
