Paul Evans led the betting the whole way against Phillip Marmorstein. He bet fourth street and was called; both players checked fifth street. Evans fired again on sixth street and one last time on the river.
Down the river, Marmorstein squeezed his cards and then called. Evans knew he was beat when he opened 8-9-9 in the hole for 10-9-8-5-A; Marmorstein showed down 6-5-3 for 7-6-5-3-2. He may not have gotten a call from Evans with a raise, but we were very surprised to see him just call behind in that spot.
