Spets Checks Dark, Rivers Nuts

Age Spets has just found a nice double up to eliminate an opponent early on day one of the Main Event.

Four players took a flop of {2-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and from the small blind Spets check-called the 600 chip bet from the preflop aggressor. The turn brought the {A-Clubs} and Spets check-called a bet of 1,600 from his opponent. Spets then checked in the dark as the river landed the {A-Spades}. His opponent fired 3,000 and Spets moved all in. His opponent made the call with {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for trip aces, but Spets showed {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a full house to double up to over 37,000 chips.
