In our experience, a quick flop call by an opponent usually indiciates weakness -- either a draw of some kind, or more often a pair that's not top pair. Perhaps Van Marcus realized that as well. He and Tae Jun Noh took a raised flop of {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{5-Spades}

. Noh checked to Marcus, then quickly called when Marcus bet 100,000.

The {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

turn and the {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

river were both checked through. Noh turned up {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{10-Clubs}

for middle pair, which was enough to win the pot.
