Gang Zhao bet 3,500 from middle position on a board of Q9J6 and Romain Bailleul called in the hijack. Daniel Samson then raised to 15,000 in the small blind and only Bailleul called.

The river was the 2 and Samson bet 30,000. Bailleul quickly folded.

"I had ace-ten of spades. Just put another spade out there," Bailleul said.

"We're supposed to be playing small, but the pots keep getting bigger and bigger," Samson added.
