Giovanni Safina raised to 18,000 from under the gun with two black deuces. Phil Laak was the only caller, sitting in the big blind with the {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

.

The flop came down {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

and Laak led for 16,000, maybe hoping to control the pot and see the turn for cheap with his draw rather than let Safina control the bet sizing. Safina folded and Laak's bet worked as he picked up the pot.
