Both players checked the flop . The turn came and Zoller bet 200,000. Visher called, bringing the river . Zoller threw out another bet of 300,000 and Visher folded, showing the face up. With Visher's fold, Zoller earned the side pot and it was time for both him and Needens to table their hands for the main pot.
