Zolotow Shows Two
Steve Zolotow limped the small blind before Chino Rheem raised 600,000 in the big blind. Zolotow called.
Both players checked to the A♥J♥2♥8♦ turn where Zolotow bet 400,000 and Rheem called.
The 3♦ completed the board and Zolotow continued for 1,200,000. Rheem went deep into the tank. After about a minute, it looked like Rheem was going to fold and Zolotow pretended to take his chips back.
"You're so happy I'm going to fold. I know you have the king of hearts, but do you have three black cards with it?" Asked Rheem.
He continued, "I wish I had more than one pair to call off all of these chips. That's what I have, I swear to god."
After another 30 seconds or so, he mucked his hand and asked Zolotow to show three black cards.
Zolotow flashed K♥Q♠ while saying, "The rest of my cards are hearts, I can't show."
