Hand #216 - Ivan Demidov

Peter Eastgate has the button. He completes the small blind. Ivan Demidov checks the big blind. Both players check the flop to the turn. With the board showing {4-Spades} {7-Hearts} {6-Spades} {2-Hearts}, Demidov again checks to Eastgate, who bets 1 million. Demidov calls.

Both players check the river when it falls {5-Clubs}. Demidov shows {3-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} for a seven-high straight. That's a winner.
