Mahliyo Cagatay limped under the gun for 150,000, Jorge Gomez moved all in UTG+1 for 1,175,000, and Victor Carrera called from middle position. Cagatay folded.

Gomez turned over Ad10s, and he needed to improve to stay alive against Carrera’s 9s9d.

The board came Ks3h2cQh3d — Gomez turned a gutshot straight draw, but improved no further. Carrera won the pot with his pocket nines to eliminate Gomez in 40th place.
