Lautaro Guerra raised to 400,000 in the cutoff and Dirk Gerritse potted to 1,380,000 on the button. Guerra folded and Gerritse took down the pot.
Guerra took down a few more pots uncontested with pre-flop raises before action folded to him in the small blind. He opened again to 360,000 and Gerritse called in the small blind.
The flop came 6♥4♦2♥ and Guerra took a peek at Gerritse's remaining stack before potting to 840,000. Gerritse quickly folded.

Life Outside Poker: Boston Rob Shares Story of Costa Rica Poker Raid w/ Daniel Negreanu & Cheryl Hines
Boston Rob Life Outside Poker
Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 21st episode, Connor speaks with Survivor legend Boston Rob, aka Rob Mariano, about growing up near Fenway Park, learning poker at the age of 6, studying psychology at Boston University, applying for Survivor and winning Season 22, his recent appearance on Deal or No Deal Island and filming an upcoming season of The Traitors.
Boston Rob also revealed a story about Costa Rican authorities raiding a mansion known to host high-stakes poker games during a 2006 filming that included Daniel Negreanu, Josh Arieh, David Williams, Michael Mizrachi and actress Cheryl Hines.
"(Gambling mogul) Calvin (Ayre) had a big party at the house, and they came in guns drawn," he said. "And we were fine, but we all had to stay at the party until they checked our passports and everything. I think it was a little bit of a shakedown. But we had a good weekend."
