Ashby reduced his draw to just two as Portaro again drew one and fired out 12,000. Ashby check-raised to 24,000 and Portaro made the call drawing one as Ashby stood pat.
Ashby led for 12,000 and Portaro made the call.
"Nine!" announced Ashby.
Portaro quickly tabled his to collect the pot and move to 280,000 as Ashby slipped to 400,000 in chips.
