Jason Su opened for a raise to 14,500. Matthew Calhoun moved all in for 83,000 and Lou Esposito reraised to 200,000 total. Su threw his hand away and with action complete, the players showed:

Esposito: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}
Calhoun: {K-Clubs} {9-Hearts}

The board ran out {8-Hearts} {8-Spades} {3-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {5-Spades} and Calhoun's day was done. Esposito is up to just shy of 600,000 after the hand.
