Diego Testa raised to 4,800 from under the gun and John Eames called in the big blind. The flop was and Eames check-called a 4,800 Testa bet. The turn was the and again Eames check-called; this time for 10,000. On the river we saw the make an appearance and Eames checked to Testa who fired his third consecutive barrel for 21,500.
Eames played out the hand in his head but was having difficulties making a decision. In the end someone called the clock and with Testa shouting in his ear to fold Eames did in fact fold. Testa smacked the felt in acknowledgement of his good fold and turned over a pair of kings for a flopped set.
