The flop was showing {5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{k-Spades} in raised pot when Nancy Birnbaum check-called a bet of 1,100 from Maria Konnikova.

The turn fell a {j-Spades} and both players checked. On the river {2-Hearts}, Birnbaum bet 1,750 and Konnikova chose to call, turning over {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}. It was enough to win the hand as Birnbaum mucked.
