Battle of the Short Stacks

Like an oompa loompa civil war, it was a battle of the shorties as Frank Callaghan took on another fellow struggler.

On this occasion, it was the Irish veteran who had his nose in front, {A-?}{K-?} looking in cracking shape against {A-?}{9-?}.

Despite a nine on the flop, the best hand ultimately triumphed as a second cowboy rode in on the river to award Callghan the pot.

Consequently, Callaghan jumps up to the dizzy, nosebleed inducing heights of 30,000.
