The flop came 5♣5♥7♥, Scarborough check-called the 4,175,000 continuation-bet of Briski.
The turn was the J♥ and Scarborough checked again. Briski mumbled through the options and then barreled a bet of 14,500,000 into the pot. Scarborough glanced at his cards and then called.
The river completed the board with the 6♦. Scarborough took over the initiative and led out with a bet of 22,000,000. Briski looked over to him and then shoved. Scarborough snap-folded. Briski proudly jumped up from his chair and flipped over the 10♦9♥ to show the bluff and celebrated with his rail.
