Under the gun, Jeff Sarwer opened to 4,800, and his old pal Shaun Deeb came along with him for a heads-up flop. The dealer spread out {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{7-Spades}

, and both players checked. They would do the same on the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

turn, and the river brought the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

. When Sarwer checked a third time, Deeb stacked out 6,700 chips and slid them across the line.

Sarwer leaned back in his chair with a smirk on his face. "Friggin' four-flush," he said, still smiling and shooting glances across the table. After another minute or so, he hurriedly stacked together the call and plunked it into the pot. Deeb tabled {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

for the airball. Sarwer proudly flipped over {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{2-Hearts}

, his lowly pair of deuces good enough to earn him the pot.

Sarwer - 255,000
Deeb - 55,000
