Nick Schulman limped from the small blind with and Scott Seiver checked his option from the big with . The flop saw Schulman check-call a bet of 110,000 with his pair of fives, and then he checked the turn. Seiver was ahead with a pair of eights and promptly fired out 225,000. Schulman went into the tank.
Eventually he made the call, and then both players checked the river. Seiver confidently said he had a pair, and then Schulman showed him that he had rivered a winning two pair. Upon seeing the cards, Seiver simply shook his head in disbelief.
