The First Bustout of Day 1c

[user10554]
[user10554]
After a flop of A-5-4 with two spades, a player bets, Hamid Hakami raises, and the first player calls. The turn card is a 3, the first player checks, Hakami bets, and his opponent calls. The river card is a blank, the first player checks, Hakami moves all in, and his opponent calls with A-K for top pair. Hakami shows {A-Spades}{2-Spades} for the five-high straight and the busted flush draw to win the pot and bust the very first player on Day 1b at about 12:25 pm.

After the hand, Hakami expressed some concern that his opponent might have a hand like pocket fives (for a set), but he went with it anyway.
