With the board showing Club QClub 9Heart 6Diamond 10 on the turn, the player in the small blind checks, Maon Oroku bets 3,500 from middle position, and the small blind check-raises all in for 11,100.

Oroku thinks for a bit before she calls with Heart 8Heart 7 for a ten-high straight, and the small blind turns over Heart 10Diamond 9 for two pair. The small blind needs to catch a nine or a ten on the river to stay alive.

The river card is the Heart A, and Oroku wins the pot to eliminate her opponent.

Maon Oroku  –  51,500  (86 bb)
