Action was joined on the river as a wet board read 9♦10♥9♠J♥8♠. Robin Wezelenburg bet 21,000 from early position into a pot of about 47,000.
Aria Shahi was in the cutoff and took his time to assess the bet. After several moments, he tossed out a raise to 60,000. It was then Wezelenburg's turn to think. After a while he slid his cards into the muck for the fold.
