In a battle of the blinds, Helio Chreem opened with a raise to 45,000. Next door, big blind Cesar Mostafa moved all in for 262,000 total, and Chreem instantly called to put him at risk.

Showdown
Chreem: {10-Diamonds}

Mostafa:

The flop gave Mostafa a bit of hope as it rolled out {8-Diamonds}

. He picked up the tens as out cards to his gutshot straight, but two of them were already in his opponent's hand. The turn bricked off with the airball {2-Clubs}

, but the river was much less of a brick.

The surprise {10-Clubs}

struck the board like a bolt of lightning, and Mostafa shot out of his seat and into the arms of his supporters on the rail. "Vamos! Vamos!" echoed through the tournament room, and all Chreem could do was shake his head. He's been knocked all the way back to just 75,000, while Mostafa climbs to 540,000.
