Rachid Ben Cherif Calls it Right

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

Rachid Ben Cherif was in the big blind and check-called a bet on a {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} flop. The turn card was the {4-Hearts}, and Ben Cherif check-called a bet of 8,500 from his opponent. The river was the {6-Spades}, and Ben Cherif checked one last time. His opponent bet 18,000, and Ben Cherif’s eyes rolled up to the ceiling.

For close to five minutes, Ben Cherif contemplated his decision, squirming around in his seat before calling. His opponent tapped the table and showed {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a missed draw. Ben Cherif showed his {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for trips to take the pot.
