Rui Cao raised to 475 under the gun and picked up calls from Anatoly Gurtovoy on the button and also Fabian Gentile in the big blind.

This seemed very exciting, but all three checked the {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

flop, and come the {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

turn it checked to Gurtovoy, who bet 650. Cao made the call and they moved, heads-up, on to the {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

river, which both players checked again. There followed a brief argument over who should turn their cards over first, and in the end Cao turned over {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

. Gurtovoy mucked, and Cao made a small recovery to 23,000.
