Jelassi Accepts a Gift

We came to Ramzi Jelassi's table in time to see the end of a three-way hand. Jelassi, sitting in the small blind, bet 3,700 with the board showing {7-Spades} {6-Spades} {3-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {5-Clubs}. He was called by one of his opponent before the other opponent raised to 21,000. Jelassi didn't like that raise but then said, "Ok, I call 21,000." He was the only player to call. The player who had made the 21,000-chip raise mucked rather than show his hand down.

Jelassi moved to collect the pot without opening his hand, but one player at the table requested to see it. The dealer opened {7-Hearts} {5-Hearts}, a full house. Jelassi is up to 47,000.
