Shane "Shaniac" Schleger just now made it to showdown versus an opponent, having called a bet following the river card.
"Pair," declared Schleger's opponent, hesitating before tabling his hand. "Go!" barked Schleger. "Expose yourself!"
His opponent showed 
, and Schleger turned over his hand which contained a 
, which matched another on the board, and Schleger claimed the pot with his better pair.
"That sounded dirty," said Olivier Busquet afterwards, repeating Schleger's directive to "expose yourself." "Maybe I will, too!" he added, and the table laughed.

There was already about 15,000 in the middle by the time Tom "durrrr" Dwan and Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott reached the river. The board read 
. Dwan thought about ten seconds, then checked, and Ulliott quickly fired a bet of 8,000. Dwan considered the situation, then made the call.
