Action folded around to Brandon Cantu in the cutoff seat and he raised to 60,000. Robert Ford pushed all in from the big blind for 255,000 and Cantu called. The players showed:

Ford: {5-Clubs} {5-Spades}
Cantu: {6-Hearts} {6-Diamonds}

The board ran out {K-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {2-Spades} {Q-Hearts} giving Cantu the win. Ford's fives were no good and he hit the rail. Cantu now commands a stack of about 2,850,000.
