Eric Haik raised to 21,500 preflop and David La Ronde pushed all-in for his last 40,000 or so. Brian Green then reraised all-in behind from the blinds and Haik tanked.

Eventually he made the call with a surprisingly strong {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{J-Clubs}

, La Ronde meekily cried for an ace as he turned over {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{2-Spades}

and Green showed {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

.

The board came {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{9-Hearts}

{7-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

{7-Hearts}

and Haik jumped out his chair and celebrated with a loud "Yes!" as the rest of the table looked slightly bemused.

Green and La Ronde were eliminated as a result.
