Jamie Gold Makes the Hero Call...

With the board reading {2-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} Jamie Gold piled the rest of his chips into a single stack, stood up and with a big grin said, "I'm making the Kenny Tran call. I hope you're bluffing."

Maybe Gold was influenced by the fact that Kenny Tran was standing next to the table watching the hand unfold with Burt Boutin. Unfortunately for Gold his opponent wasn't bluffing--he held the {A-Hearts}{3-Clubs} for the wheel and Gold was eliminated. As Gold stood up from the table Tran said, "If that call would've worked out it would've ended up in my blog."
