The river was the 8♦, Graham checked for a third time and Pham decided to bet 3,625,000. Graham was deep in thought when Pham started talking to Graham, "Please fold, I can't look man please fold."

Graham then went all in for 7,375,000, Pham snap-called. Graham rolled over Q♠8♠ which was the superior full house to Pham's 8♥2♣.
