Ulises Roman
Just 5 minutes after getting back from break, teal chips were already flying around on Table 29 in a heads up battle between Christian Harder and Ulises Roman.

On a flop of A♠ 5♠ 4x, Harder bet 22,000 and Roman flat-called.

The turn brought the 9♠. Harder bet approximately 40,000 before Roman pushed all-in. Harder made the call and flipped up top pair with the nut flush draw in Ax K♠, but Roman already made his flush with Q♠ 10♠.

The Kx on the river gave Harder two pair, but it wasn't enough to chip Roman up to 400,000.
