We joined the action on a {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} flop where David Vamplew bet 18,000 from the small blind. Inigo Rodriguez was in the big blind and he raised to 42,000. Vamplew called.

The turn brought the {2-Spades} into play and Vamplew checked its arrival. Rodriguez bet 76,000 and Vamplew called. The fifth and final community card was the {A-Spades} and Vamplew checked again. Rodriguez couldn't fire a third barrel and he checked behind.

Vamplew turned over {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} and scooped the huge pot.

"What? Again?" said one of Vamplew's table mates, suggesting the young Brit has already had a big pair in a similar spot. Vamplew is now up to 430,000 chips.
