2019 Poker Bowl Champ Ron West raised to 600 from late position, only to call a 1,600 three-bet Rich Dixon made from the hijack.

The two went heads-up to a flop, West checked to Dixon, who fired out a 1,200 continuation bet. West then clapped back with a 5,000 raise, and Dixon called to see the turn.

West then check-called a 8,500 bet from Dixon, and the dealer dropped the on the river, completing the board.

A quick all-in bet was then announced by West, as he moved his remaining 9,900 stack into the middle, and Dixon frustratedly called.

West tabled for a rivered flush, and it was good as Dixon tossed into the muck.
