Battle of the Blinds

Borgata Winter Poker Open Championship 

On the river with a board of T 3 2 K K, Roz Quarto (sb) fires a bet and the player on her left (bb) makes the call.  "Two pair" she says, seeming hesitant to turn over her cards.  The big blind is also hesitant, so she tables 83 off for a pair of 3s to go with the Kings on board.  Her opponent mucks and Roz claps and says "That's a woman on tilt...you called me with Ace-high, didn't you?"

With that pot, Roz is up to ~1.1 million and second in chips behind Or Abramov.
