Khoury Keeping it Friendly

With the board reading {2-Clubs}{4-Spades}{8-Spades}{8-Hearts} Julian Powell fired out a 4,500 chip bet and Paul Khoury made the call.

The river is {8-Diamonds} and Khoury holds out his hand over the felt saying "I'm prepared to check!" Powell obliges and Khoury keeps his word as he shows {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. Powell mucks his hand and Khoury take a nice pot saying "I hated that river!"
