Richard Allen raised under the gun and picked up a call from Fabien Dunlop on the button.

Both players checked the {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

flop, and Allen checked the {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

turn too. Dunlop bet 25,000, Allen called, and they moved to the river.

The river came the {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

and Allen checked again. Dunlop looked as though he was considering something interesting, but in the end thought better of it and checked behind with a shrug. He turned over {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Hearts}

-- but Allen took the pot with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{4-Diamonds}

for a pair of fours.
