Fear The Limper

Savan Trivedi limps for 300 in early position, before Roberto Truijers pushes all in for his last 3,500 or so. It's passed to the big blind who think for ages, clearly worried by the limp and eventually elects to fold. Trivedi on the other hand, throws another three of the yellow 1,000 chips nonchalantly into the middle.

Truijers shows {A-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} to Trivedi's {Q-Clubs} {9-Hearts} with the board running out {K-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {8-Spades}. Truijers lets out a triumphant, "Yes!" which leaves the table slightly baffled as it's pointed out by the dealer the river is an eight and not a seven. Suddenly realizing his mistake he then apologizes, before leaving the table.
