After a flop of Club 8Diamond 5Club 3, the player in the small blind gets it all in with Heart KHeart 8 for a pair of eights, but he needs to improve to stay alive against Rikiya Jinbo, who is UTG+1 and covers him with Spade ASpade 8 (pair of eights, higher kicker).

The turn card is the Spade 6, the river card is the Diamond 10, and Jinbo wins the pot with his ace kicker to eliminate his opponent.
