Where is the Rest of the Pot?

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

On the turn with the board reading 9♣5♦4♦9♦ and around 13,000 in the middle, Erik Baum led for 5,600 from the big blind and was called by Walter Waidelich in middle position.

The river brought the 10♠ as Baum announced, "Same bet." Although not a legal bet, it was understood to be another wager of 5,600, and Waidelich quickly called.

Erik Baum: 10♦9♠
Walter Waidelich: 5♠5♣

Waidelich had turned a full house, but Baum rivered a higher full house, and Waidelich appeared to lose the minimum in a cooler scenario.
