Seated UTG, “Mr. X” opened to 2,000. “Mr. Y”, seated in the Big Blind, was the sole caller.

Mr. Y check-called a 2,000 continuation bet from Mr. X on the A♥8♦Q♥ flop. Action repeated itself on the 2♥ turn, the only difference being that Mr. X now sized up to 3,000.

It was Mr. Y who led out for 4,000 on the 5♠ river. Mr. X sighed heavily before making the call.

Mr. Y: A♠3♣
Mr. X: 8♥8♠

When Mr. Y turned over his hand, Mr. X initially thought he lost the pot to a straight. He apoligized for the un-intentional slowroll before collecting his newly-won chips.

Mr. X: 72,000
Mr. Y: 25,000
