Caufman Talley stood no chance.

Mathematically speaking, of course, his {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} gave him nearly a fifty percent chance against Matt Affleck's {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}... but everyone watching this Six-Max final table wind its way down knew what was coming.

Affleck is running like Sidney Rice in the open field, and on this hand he could not be touched. With all of the money in before the flop, Affleck and Talley stood to sweat as the dealer delivered their destiny in a flash.

Flop: {10-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs}

Affleck clapped and pumped his fist at the sight of his set, but the four-flush on board calmed his celebration somewhat. The turn card came {4-Hearts} to keep him out in front, and Caufman was down to his last card needing a club to keep him alive.

River: {4-Clubs}

Caufman found his flush on the river, but it made no difference to Affleck as he paired the board to fill his full house. The put Affleck on the brink of victory, as he now holds nearly every chip on the table entering heads-up play. Caufman, meanwhile, took home $41,246 for his near miss.
