Steve Raeman raised to 225,000 from the button, Guillermo Reyes called from the small blind and David Shmuel called from the big blind.

The flop was Qs10c8s and Reyes checked to Shmuel who shoved for 575,000. Raeman called, Reyes check-raised all in with a covering stack and Raeman called all in for another 1,575,000.

Raeman: Js9c
Reyes: KsJc
Shmuel: 10s9s

Raeman flopped the nut straight, Reyes had outs to a better straight and Shmuel had middle pair and a flush draw.

The turn was the 3s, giving Shmuel the lead with a flush.

The river was the 5c, safe for Shmuel to triple up to win the main spot, while Raeman won a side pot against Reyes.
