On a turn of {q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} Sam Dorrestein checked to an opponent who bet 2,300. Dorrestein check-raised to 7,300 and his opponent called. Both players checked the {10-Clubs} on the river and Dorrestein showed {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for two-pair, which elicited a tap of the table in appreciation from his opponent.

A few hands later and with a full board of {7-Hearts}{j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts} spread across the table, Dorrestein checked to a different opponent who moved all in for around 25,000 into a pot of 12,000. Dorrestein thought for a while but eventually folded flashing the {j-Hearts} for trips to his opponent.

His opponent then gestured to his cards. "Just one," asked Dorrestein, reaching for them. "No," came the reply, "Both!"

Dorrestein turned over {a-Spades}{8-Clubs} for ace-high and his opponent's shove got through.
