HomeTetsuya Tsuchikawa opened with 500 pre-flop and had callers from both blinds.
All three players checked the flop 9♠ A♠ 2♥ and on the turn 10♣ the SB player bet 1,000, the big blind folded and Tet re-popped to 2,200. SB made the call.
River A♣ arrived and both players both checked. Tet shows A♦ 8♦ and the small blind mucked to give the Japanese the nice pot.
