Preflop, Chris Dombrowski open-shoved all in from middling position for a total of 30,700. Neal Cooke, sitting to Dombrowski's immediate left, also opted to move all in for approximately 45,000. All other players folded and a showdown ensued:

Showdown:
Dombrowski: {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{10-Clubs}

Cooke:

{J-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

"This hand's been hitting for me all day," said Cooke as he sweated the board: {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{5-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

Dombrowski's tens gave him a bigger boat than the one that Cooke played on the board, to secure his double up and boost him to about 65,000 in chips. Cooke, meanwhile, dropped to 13,900 in the loss.
