Samoa Spikes the River
Level 34
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Welyam Gelyana opened to 2,200,000 on the button holding A♥J♦ and Andrew Samoa called from the big blind with Q♥10♦.
When the flop came down 4♠K♥4♥, Samoa checked in flow and Gelyana opted to check back to see the 8♥ fall on the turn. The action went check-check again and the Q♦ hit the river, pairing Samoa.
Again both checked, and Samoa's rivered pair of tens was good for the pot.
