Erica Schoenberg raised to 525 from middle position and a woman in the big blind called. The flop came {7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts}. The BB checked, Schoenberg bet 700, and her opponent called. The turn was the {K-Diamonds}. Again the BB checked. This time Schoenberg bet 1,500, and again was called.

The river brought the {8-Spades}. The big blind checked, and Schoenberg bet 2,500. Her opponent tossed out a 5,000 chip, though didn't announce her bet. Schoenberg, thinking she had been called, turned over her hand -- {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, kings and tens. Her opponent, thinking she had been called, showed hers -- {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, a rivered straight.

Schoenberg, seeing she was beat, was obviously not putting anymore chips in the pot. After some discussion, it was ruled as if she had folded to the check-raise. Schoenberg now has 12,000.
