Balkin Wins First Showdown of Feature Table

Jesse Sylvia raised to 240,000 under the gun and picked up one caller in the form of David Balkin from the button. It was heads-up action to the flop, which both players checked.
When the turned, Sylvia bet 355,000, Balkin called, and the
peeled off on the river. Both players returned to checking and Balkin rolled over
, which was good enough to win the pot.
