Another exciting hand had the rail riveted to the secondary feature table. Saidal Wardak opened for 60,000 before Ben Delaney moved all in for 220,000. Wardak called!

Delaney: {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

Wardak:

{5-Diamonds}

{5-Hearts}

Both players hit the {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

flop. Delaney made two pair; Wardak made a small flush draw. His mates were all shouting for a heart and were elated to see the {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

hit the turn. It wasn't over, though. Delaney still had four outs on the river, and wouldn't you know, he hit one -- the {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

-- drawing roars from Delaney's own supporters.

As a result, play goes on. Delaney now has almost 500,000 chips.
