Albert Son raised from the hijack to 325,000, Liran Bracha called from the button, and Femi Fashakin called from the big blind.

All three players checked to the turn on a board of AsAdJh4s, Fashakin checked, and Son bet 425,000. Bracha called, and Fashakin folded.

The river card was the 7h, Son bet 975,000, and Bracha tanked for a while before he called. Son showed Ac5c to win the pot with trip aces, and Bracha mucked.
