The player in the hijack opened the action with a raise and Orpen Kisacikoglu on the button called. Big blind Stephen Chidwick squeezed to 1,250 and both the initial raiser and Kisacikoglu called.

With a flop of {4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{8-Hearts}, Chidwick continued for 1,300. The hijack folded, Kisacikoglu raised to 3,900 after just a couple of seconds in the tank. Chidwick called.

As the {A-Spades} hit the turn, Chidwick checked. Kisacikoglu bet a hefty 13,500 and Chidwick called.

The {9-Hearts} on the river saw both players check just about instantly and Chidwick revealed {6-Spades}{7-Spades}. Kisacikoglu tabled {5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and took down the big pot.
