Mathieu Gomez raised from the cutoff and Samuel Bifarella called in the small blind. The latter then check-called the 
flop for 8,000 and the 
turn for 16,500. Both checked the 
river and Bifarella tabled 
for a pair and busted nut flush draw.
Gomez had that beat with the 
to win the urgently needed pot. "I can't really fold there on the flop and turn?!" Bifarella inquired in table chat.
