David Saab opened the pot with a raise from middle position. Two seats over, a short-stacked Spanish-speaking player moved all in for his remaining 2,725 chips. When the bet came back around to Saab, he called.

Showdown:
Saab: {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

Opponent:

{J-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

"Whooo! Race board!" cheered the grinning Saab. The dealer ran out the community cards: {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

. Finding the board to be of no use for his overcards, Saabb lost the race, sending a courtesy double-up over to his opponent.
