Eyal Avitan raised from the cutoff; on the button, Pieter de Korver reraised. Avitan eyed him up, and then called.

Both players checked the {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

flop, and Avitan bet out 103,000 on the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

turn. De Korver quickly called, and they saw a {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

river. Avitan now bet 200,000 and de Korver confidently made the call, flipping {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

for two pair. Avitan flipped {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

for a rivered straight.

"No," said de Korver.

"Yes!" said Avitan.

"Oh f*** no," continued de Korver. "S**t s**t s**t s**t s**t."

De Korver is reduced to 240,000; Avitan meanwhile is up to well over a million in chips.
