Mike McClain was at it again, opening another pot with a raise to 8,000. The action then fell to Emilio Porcalla who quickly announced, "I'm all in." Action folded around the table and back to McClain, who asked for a count.

"37,100" the dealer told him, and McClain made the call.

Showdown:
McClain: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Spades}

Porcalla:

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

The flop came down {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{Q-Spades}

{10-Hearts}

giving both players the nut Broadway straight and a chance at hitting running flush cards. The turn and river filled out anticlimactically, however, finishing out {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

,

{2-Diamonds}

and the players took their bets back.
