Nível 24 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 0 ante

Benjamin Vidal three-bet on the button and was called by Itsuko Yoroi in the big blind and Ryan Scully.

The flop came 6♣4♦4♠ and Vidal continued with a bet. Both opponents called and action was checked through on the 5♣ turn.

The river came the Q♥ and Yoroi led out with a bet. Only Scully called as Vidal got out of the way.

"Ace-three," Scully announced, but Yoroi turned over A♥2♠J♠9♥. "Wow. You scoop it," Scully added.

Vidal lamented his fold and said he folded a pair. "You're such a fish," Scully told him.

"I am," Vidal replied.

"I'm glad you made it this far. Gives hope to fish everywhere," Scully continued.
