Top Pair Good for Geith

Level 18 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Robert Geith took his time to make a final river call that won him a pot of over 400,000. On the turn, the board standing {5-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{8-Clubs} Geith checked and his opponent on the button bet 61,000. Geith called to see a {4-Diamonds} river before checking again, and his opponent bet 135,000, just under a third of her remaining chips.

Geith stared her down while she kept her eyes on the table impassively. He played with some chips (the call would leave him very short stacked if he lost the pot) and apologized for taking a lot of time. Finally he threw in the call; she tabled {10-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for a bluff and his {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds} took the pot.
