Timothy Adams opened to 2,500 in the cutoff and Kayhan Mokri defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of K♠8♣3♦, and Mokri check-raised Adams' continuation bet of 2,000 to 7,000. Adams made the call.
When the 4♣ hit the turn, Mokri continued with aggression, firing 20,500 into the middle. Adams matched the bet.
The 4♠ completed the board on the river, and Mokri took the full 30 seconds allotted before tossing in a time chip. Eventually, he tapped the table and Adams did the same. Mokri tabled K♣J♥ for top pair on the flop, which was good to drag the pot as Adams' cards hit the muck.
