Day 1J: Hinojosa On a Heater

After eliminating Ravee Sundara by spiking a set, Caesar Hinojosa got involved in another big pot with Derek Normand...

Derek Normand opened UTG to 24,500 and was called by Hinojosa to see a flop of 6♥8♣J♣. 

Normand checked to Hinojosa, who then bet 75,000 into the pot of 50,000 and Normand called. 

The two players then checked through the turn 7♣ and went straight to the river A♥. Normand then fired out for 147,000, which made Hinojosa stand up. 

"I call, I have a set," he announced and tabled 6♥6♦ for a flopped set of sixes. Normand shook his head and showed A♣J♥ for top two-pair while another big pot was shipped over to Hinojosa.

Hinojosa - 1,200,000
Normand- 450,000
