With about 70,000 already in the middle and the board reading {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts}, Christian Rudolph checked from the big blind, Jesse Sylvia checked from under the gun, and Chris Hunichen checked behind on the button.

The turn brought the {K-Spades} and all three players checked.

The {10-Diamonds} fell on the river and action checked around to Hunichen, who bet 165,000. Rudolph quickly folded and Sylvia check-raised all in for a total of 364,000, sending Hunichen into the tank.

"This is sick," said Hunichen after nearly three minutes. "The only way you can be bluffing is if you just think I'm bluffing."

After about five minutes total, Hunichen called. Sylvia tabled {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}, but Hunichen flipped over {J-Spades}{10-Spades} for trip tens to win the pot and send Sylvia to the cage.
