Heads-up on a flop of 8♥4♥3♠, Joseph Oren bet 70,000 from the cutoff and Hassan Nashar called in the big blind.
Oren bet another 320,000 on the 6♣ turn, and Nashar again called. The river was the J♦ and Nashar checked to Oren, who this time checked back.
Nashar showed J♥3♣ for two pair, and Oren mucked. "Why didn't you bet again?" Nashar asked.
"He had a four," tablemate Sergio Fernandez added.

Sinan Unlu raised to 60,000 in the cutoff and Matthias Eibinger called on the button, as did Jessica Teusl in the big blind.
Action checked to Eibinger on the 10♠5♦6♦ flop and he bet 70,000. Teusl folded, but Unlu then raised to 225,000. Eibinger called.
The 10♥ fell on the turn and Unlu checked to Eibinger again. Eibinger bet 225,000, and Unlu called.
The river was the J♥ and Eibinger moved all in. "I have one card 100 percent I call, one card 100 percent I fold," Unlu said as he went into the tank, burning through three time banks before flashing the 7♦ and folding.
"Show the VIP," Teusl implored Eibinger, and he flashed the 3♦ while taking in the pot.
Danilo Velasevic raised to 80,000 in middle position and Matthias Eibinger called on the button. Gha Iakobishvili then three-bet to 250,000 in the small blind and Velasevic moved all in for 450,000. Eibinger folded, but Iakobishvili called to put Velasevic at risk.
Danilo Velasevic: Q♣Q♥ 
Gha Iakobishvili: A♦K♠
Velasevic remained in the lead with his queens as the board came 4♠4♥7♠10♦, but Iakobishvili spiked the K♣ on the river to win the pot and send Velasevic to the rail.
Jessica Teusl told Iakobishvili she folded ace-queen in the big blind after the hand. "How do you fold?" Iakobishvili told her.
"She read you like a book," Eibinger replied.
"She read one fish, two fish," Sinan Unlu added.
Adrian Mateos bet 55,000 from the cutoff on a flop of 3♠4♦J♥ before Sinan Unlu raised to 160,000 in the big blind. Mateos called, and the A♥ fell on the turn.
Unlu then bet 260,000 and Mateos again called. The river was the 2♣ and Unlu bet 740,000. Mateos shook his head and quickly tossed his cards away as Unlu took the pot.
At another table, Giorgiy Skhulukhiya had his last 500,000 in the middle from the small blind as Johan Guilbert put him at risk in middle position.
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: A♦K♦
Johan Guilbert: 10♦10♣
It didn't remain a coin flip for long, as Guilbert spiked top set on the 10♥9♣7♠ flop. He ended up with a full house as the board ran out 4♠7♥, and Skhulukhiya was sent to the rail.
