Evan McNiff raises from under the gun to 1,800. Jean "Prince" Gaspard is in the big blind and makes the call. The flop comes {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{7-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

and both players check. The turn is the {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

and Gaspard leads out for 2,500. McNiff makes the call. The river is the {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

and both players check it down.

Neither player wants to turn over their cards and they get in a staring match, trying to will the other to show their hand first. Prince gives up after a few awkward moments and tosses his cards into the muck. McNiff takes down the pot without having to show the table what he held.
