The flop came 
, Ziegler check-called the 70,000 bet of Kisacikoglu.
They both checked on the turn when the 
came. The board was completed with the 
on the river, Ziegler checked again. Kisacikoglu looked at Ziegler and then at his chips. He proceeded with a bet of 400,000. Ziegler looked at his stack and then shoved for 875,000. Kisacikoglu called with the slightly smaller stack. Ziegler tabled 
and Kisacikoglu regretfully showed 
for the lower pocket pair.
