Cruz Takes One to Nakamura

Level 29
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Eider Cruz raised to 240,000 in the cutoff and Ricardo Nakamura called in the big blind to go see the flop 5?A?K?. Nakamura check-called Cruz's continuation for 150,000.
The 5? turn went checked and a 9? appeared on the river. Nakamura led out for 315,000 and after a short thinking, Cruz called. Nakamura tabled K?8? for a pair of kings but it wasn't good enough to win the pot as Cruz showed A?J? for a pair of aces.
