Stalemate for Pham

A player in Seat 10 raised to 1,900 from middle position and David Pham called on the button. The flop came {Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} and Seat 10 bet 3,100.

After Pham made the call the turn came the {3-Hearts}. This time Seat 10 checked and Pham bet 4,600.

Seat 10 called and then both players checked the {7-Spades} on the river. This is the point where someone would show their hand to win, but neither player wanted to reveal their cards. In fact, the dealer had to call a floor over to determine who was obligated to show first.

As it turned out, Seat 10 was first to show and she flipped over {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}. Pham then turned over {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} for the same pair but with a better kicker. Pham is up to 56,000.
