Kevin Detienne raised to 3,000 in early position, Carey Hargesheimer flatted in the cutoff, and both the players in the blind came along for the ride.
The flop came 10♥10♠A♣ and it checked over to Detienne who continued with a bet of 5,000. Hargesheimer made it 15,000 to go and it folded over to Detienne who took a moment to think through his decision.
"I don't like that ten, nice hand," said Detienne as he tossed his cards into the muck.
