Sam Greenwood's Monster River Bet Gets Paid
Iliodoros Kamatakis opened with a raise to 3,000 before Sam Greenwood called from the small blind.
The flop came down 
and both players checked to see the 
on the turn. There, Greenwood checked. Kamatakis put out a bet of 4,500 and Greenwood thought for a bit before calling.
The river was the 
and Greenwood checked again. Kamatakis fired another bet, making it 7,500. Greenwood thought for a bit, then decided to raise, and he decided to raise big, making it 40,000, more than the size of the pot.
Kamatakis dropped into the tank, expending two of his timebank chips. Eventually, he decided to call, but he mucked quickly when Greenwood showed him 
for a rivered flush. That allowed Greenwood to take down the massive pot while Kamatakis was dropped down to about half of a starting stack.
