Easy Pezzin

Pat Pezzin called a preflop all-in from one of his opponents. Pezzin was behind, but his cards were live -- he held {9-Hearts} {8-Hearts} against his opponent's {K-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}. The board ran out {A-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {10-Hearts}. Just the nine would have been enough, but Pezzin wound up making a flush to eliminate his opponent and chip up to about 40,000.
