No Action on Gordon's Boat

Level 33 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Simeon Spasov opened to 600,000 with A?8? and John Henry Gordon came along with K?9?.

Crazily enough, the flop came out K?9?9? to give Gordon a full house, but Spasov is the one who bet 500,000 and Gordon just called.

The action went check-check on the 10? turn and they went straight to the 2? river. Gordon checked once more but his trap failed as Spasov quickly checked back. Gordon's holding got a big reaction from the table as he showed the huge hand and raked in the pot.
