Those were the words of Jesus Cantu, who was all in from the big blind for about 10,000 when we got to his table. The flop had come {9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{k-Spades} and a player in middle position had raised to 20,000. William Hesser made it about 70,000 in the hijack, and the initial raiser was in the tank. He finally folded.

"I need runner-runner of some kind," Cantu said, tabling {8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}.

He was right as Hesser had {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for a set. The {q-Spades} turn did bring a backdoor flush possibility for Cantu but the river was a {6-Diamonds}.

Hesser asked if the third player had ace-king, and he claimed to have mucked aces.
