flop, Peters check-called a bet of 50,000 before the 
turn was checked by both players. Peters bet the 
river for 225,000 and Kisacikoglu folded.

Level 14
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Fedor Holz opened the hijack for 46,000 and big blind David Peters called.
Peters check-called 38,000 on the flop and 91,000 on the turn before checking a third time on the river. Holz bet 325,000 and Peters went deep into the tank. His 30-second clock ran down and he was forced to use a time bank chip to gain another half minute of time to think.
With only a couple seconds left to act, he announced a call.
Holz showed for nothing but a missed turned flush draw. Peters tabled and counted out his 324,000-stack to receive it back times two.
