, Jaime Cervantes called out of the big blind with 
.
The 
flop was checked to Pingray, who bet 200,000. Hvam folded and Cervantes called as they headed to the 
turn. Cervantes checked once more and Pingray fired a second barrel for 800,000 into a pot of 1,020,000, forcing Cervantes to use a time bank extension before he called.
That led to the 
on the river which improved Cervantes to trips but completed a potential flush. Cervantes checked and Pingray fired the third barrel by jamming for an effective 1,840,000.
The American immediately sighed and invested several of his remaining time banks before he let go. Some other players at the table guessed the cards of Pingray with one of them suspecting it to be ace-six.
