Tamon Nakamura opened to 18,000 from middle position, Vikenty Shegal called the cutoff, and Chino Rheem defended the big blind.
The flop fell [Jc2d2s], Rheem checked, Nakamura bet 20,000, Shegal folded, and Rheem called.
Both players checked the [Qh] to the [6c] river, and Nakamura bet 65,000. Rheem used a time extension and asked “You have queens?”, before revealing the [js] while he mucked his cards. Nakamura showed Rheem his hand before the cards went into the muck and he collected the pot.
