I'm On a Boat! Apparently

After a short pause in play to discuss the sorts of things that players discuss when they're three-way at an EPT final table, the poker resumed and Kevin Stani (button) quickly got involved with Konstantin Bilyauer (big blind).
They sneakily restarted play while no-one was looking so no media at all were around at the start of the hand, but it looked as though Stani had raised and Bilyauer called, before they both checked the 
flop. Bilyauer bet out 250,000 on the 
turn and Stani flat-called. The river was the 
and both players checked.
Stani turned over 
- and no-one was more surprised than he was to discover that he had made a full house. "Oh," he said. His face was a picture. "I thought I had ace-eight."
They chuckled about it for a while, but Stani was most likely very sad not to have extracted more value from that. Bilyauer seemed delighted. Nevertheless, that pot put Stani slightly in the lead on 5 million.
