On the KJJ flop there was about 9,000 in the middle, and Senthuran Vijayaratnam check-called a bet of 2,000 from his opponent.

The 6 fell on the turn, and Vijayaratnam check-called once again, this time the opponent bet 4,000.

When the 10 completed the board, both players checked. Vijayaratnam tabled Q10, missing his open-ended straight draw but rivering a ten. His opponent mucked his hand, and the dealer pushed the pot to Vijayaratnam.
