With blinds at 800/1600/200, Ariel Lauer puts in a raise to 7,000 from UTG+1. Action folds to Steven Snyder in the small blind and he calls the 7K. The player in the big blind then folded.

Snyder yelled out, “Check in the dark” prior to the flop coming down  7d 2s 9h. Lauer wasted little time in checking behind.

The  4h on the turn createed no action as both players elected to check once again.

When the  9s appeared on the river, Snyder tossed out a 12,000 bet and Lauer quickly raised to 24,000. Looking somewhat disgusted, Snyder thought the hand through in his head and then stated, “I thought you’d just call with ace-high.”

Snyder decided to call and Lauer showed  kh qs for king-high. Snyder then excitedly flipped over the  10d 10s for the win.

With that, Snyder is up to 140,000, while Lauer dropped to 55,000.
