We're not sure of the preflop action, but we do know that in a blind-versus-blind battle, Greg Raymer bet 1,200 from the small blind on a {9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop and received a call from player in the big, who is pictured to Raymer's left.

Both players then checked the {6-Diamonds} turn and Raymer checked for a second time when the {A-Diamonds} completed the board on the river. The big blind took the opportunity to bet 3,100, leaving himself just 7,500 behind, and Raymer sprung to life with a check-raise to 10,000. The big blind didn't seem thrilled and folded after thinking about it for thirty seconds or so.
