Blind on blind, Tom Orpaz limped blind and Sam Grafton raised. Orpaz called without looking at his cards.
The pair checked the Q♠10♣4♣ flop and the turn was the 4♠. Orpaz bet 15,000 — again, without looking — and Grafton called.
The river was the J♥. Orpaz quickly bet 35,000. Grafton then raised enough to put Orpaz all in.
"Please look before you call!" Grafton said, with Orpaz needing to call his last 160,000.
Orpaz peeled his first and then his second card before calling. Grafton tabled A♦K♥ for an ace-high straight, with Orpaz showing 10♠4♥ for a full house.
"Wowwwww," said Grafton loudly, getting up from the table in shock. "You bet blind!"
The neighboring tables all circled around as the action was recounted.
"I looked at the ten and was calling with the ten!" said Orpaz.
"And I felt sorry for you when you called!" said Grafton, who took the beat surprisingly well.
Jamil Wakil opened to 13,000 first-to-act with K♠10♠ and was called by Patrik Antonius in the big blind with J♣2♣ for a heads-up pot.
The 9♠10♣A♣ flop improved both players and Antonius check-called an 18,000 bet from Wakil with his flush draw.
The 8♠ fell on the turn and both players checked.
The 8♣ river gave Antonius the winning hand with a flush and he fired an overbet of 100,000 into the middle.
Wakil didn't take long to let his hand go and Antonius collected the pot.
