The turn card is the Heart J, and it checks to Zajmovic again, and she bets 133,000. Li calls, and Ho folds.

The river card pairs the board with the Club 4, and Li bets 270,000. Zajmovic thinks for about 45 seconds before she calls.

A little while after the hand, Li asks, “If I had bet bigger on the river, would you have folded?”
