"You Checked the River"?
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A player in middle position raised to 3,500 and the button and Brett Shaffer from the big blind both called. The flop came out 7?4?7? and the original raiser bet 4,000 after Shaffer checked. The button folded and Shaffer made the call.
The turn brought the 5? and the original raiser continued betting and made it 12,000 and Shaffer called.
On the river Shaffer checked and the middle position player checked. Shaffer said, "You checked the river?", incredulously. Shaffer turned over 9?9? for the full house and the middle position player quickly flashed 8x8x.
