Grasu Gets Maximum Value With River Check

Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Niculina Grasu open raised from late position and Peterson Machado made the call. The flop came Q?6?4?, Grasu continued for 3,000 and Machado called.
The turn was the 10?. Grasu bet again, this time for 7,500. Machado called again.
The river came the A? and Grasu quickly checked. Machado moved his chips into the middle for the rest of Grasu's stack, 13,300. Grasu snap-called. She flipped over A?A? for a set of aces, while Machado tabled J?J? for a pair that he'd attempted to turn into a bluff.
Grasu won the pot to double her stack, leaving Machado short.
