Howard Lederer was short-stacked and all in on fourth street against Shannon Elizabeth. The boards ran out as follows:

Elizabeth: {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{J-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{A-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{3-Spades}

-X
Lederer: {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{2-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{2-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{7-Hearts}

{5-Spades}

The cards were flipped creating a mess on the table, so we're unsure which were the hole cards, but we know that the jacks and eights of Elizabeth were too good for the sevens and deuces of Lederer, sending him to the rail.

After the hand Elizabeth quipped, "What's funny is that his sister (Annie Duke) is my coach!"
