Shawn Busse

Under the gun, Shawn Busse limped in, and the player in the cutoff seat followed suit. Both blinds came along as well, and it was a cheap four-way flop.

The dealer spread out {8-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}, and action checked around to the cutoff. He flicked out a bet of 1,000, and this time only Busse came along with the call. That led them heads-up to the {9-Diamonds} turn, and Busse check-called another 2,000 to see the {7-Diamonds} fill out the board on fifth street. When Busse checked one last time, his opponent took his cue to bet 7,000 more chips. The call represented half of Busse's remaining stack, and he spent about two minutes considering before splashing the checks into the pot.

"Straight flush," came the call from his opponent as his {5-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} hit the felt. The table reacted with awe -- all except Shawn Busse who quietly mucked and broke down his remaining 7,050 chips with just a hint of a scowl on his face.
