David Maslowski opened the cutoff with a raise, and J.C. Arriba defended his big blind.

The flop was Qs8s6h, and Arriba check-called a continuation bet from Maslowski. The turn was the 5c. Arriba checked again, and Maslowski moved all in for 460,000. Arriba pondered for several minutes, then called to try for the knockout.

Maslowski: QhJs
Arriba: QdTc

Maslowski’s kicker had him poised to double up, and he did just that as the Jd completed the board on the river. Arriba was left with just 135,000 chips, and he was eliminated one hand later.

David Maslowski – 1,275,000 (32 bb)
J.C. Arriba – Eliminated in 16th place ($2,381)
