Jaman Burton opened under the gun for 9,000 only to have Robert Natividad three-bet all in from the button.
Action folded to MSPT champ James Romero who thought long and hard before calling off his 95,000 stack from the big blind prompting a quick fold from Burton.
James Romero:
Robert Natividad:
It was a classic race with the flop keeping Romero out in front.
The turn, however, fell the giving Natividad top pair to take the lead but it also gave Romero a heart flush draw giving him some hope heading to the river.
Unfortunately for the former champ, the river was a brick and ended his night.
Robert Natividad - 260,000
James Romero - 0
