After a flop of Ks9c8c, Nadeem Hirani checked, Carlos Rodriguez Rojas bets 150,000, and Hirani check-raised to 450,000. Rojas called.

The turn card was the 3s, and Hirani moved all in for about 1.35 million, and Rojas called with QhQc.

Hirani turned over 10c7s for an open-ended straight draw, and he needed to catch a jack or a six to stay alive.

The river card was the 5d, and the pocket queens held up for Rojas to win the pot — and the trophy and the $62,090 first prize.

Congratulations to Carlos Rodriguez Rojas!
