Sands Makes Correct Call

David "Doc" Sands and Brian Rast were heads up with the board reading {2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Sands checked, and Rast bet 3,500. Sands tank-called.

The turn was the {7-Hearts}, and Sands checked again. Rast fired 6,700, and Sands tank-called.

The river was another three - the {3-Spades} - and Sands checked a third time. Rast reached for orange T5,000 chips, and tossed four of them forward, making the bet 20,000. Sands, who only had 23,600 in front of him, tanked for over a minute before making the call.

"Aces," Rast announced.

Sands didn't say anything. Rast finally showed {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}, and Sands responded by tabling {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{x-}. Rast mucked his other two cards, and Sands dragged in the pot.
