David Pham raised to 34,000 from under the gun and it folded to Nikolai Sears who called out of the big blind. Both players checked the 
flop and the 
paired the board on the turn. Sears fired 33,000 and Pham called.
The river was the 
and Sears cut out a bet of 138,000. Pham went into the tank for about a minute before calling.
"Good call," remarked Sears.
Pham showed 
for merely ace-high and Sears mucked his hand. Pham dragged in the pot and is now sitting on about 1.17 million in chips.
