Jason Young, Steven Cho, and Alex Bolotin saw a three-way limped flop. It came {K-Hearts}

. Continuing the trend of passiveness, all three men checked.

The turn card was the {3-Clubs}

. Young checked, Cho bet out 10,000, and Bolotin put in a raise to 40,000. That was enough to get Young out, but Cho hung around, calling the additional 30,000.

The last card off was the {2-Diamonds}

. Cho checked, allowing Bolotin to bet 92,500. After a minute of consideration, Cho made the call for nearly his entire stack. Bolotin showed down {3-Hearts}

, having turned his set. Cho slid his cards into the muck, while his stack did some sliding too, all the way back to just 10,000.

A short time later, the rest of Cho's chips went in holding {Q-Hearts}
