On a board that read 
, Felipe Ramos had three-way action with Paul Dando and David Sonelin. Ramos was first to act and checked, as did Dando. Sonelin, who has six EPT Main Event cashes on his resumé, bet 2,600, which both Ramos and Dando called.
On the 
river, Ramos checked, Dando checked, and Sonelin fired 11,100. Ramos thought about a minute before flicking in a call. Now it was Dando's turn to think, and the Brit spent about thirty seconds before he relinquished his holding.
A good choice, as Ramos quickly tabled for the nut flush. Sonelin quietly mucked his cards face down.
