The flop came single-suited -- {2-Hearts}

. Lyndaker checked, and Commisso bet 300,000. Lyndaker made the call.

The turn was the {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

. Lyndaker checked again. This time, Commisso checked behind.

The river was the {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

. Lyndaker bet 575,000 into the 1.2 million chip pot. Commisso took a couple of minutes, then made the call.

Lyndaker showed {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

for a pair of tens. Commisso showed {A-Clubs}
