It came {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

and Negreanu bet. Khouiss raised, putting himself all in for a total of 37,000, and Negreanu put him at risk.

"I got the nuts," said Khouiss, tabling {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{4-Spades}

. "Well, I got a low draw," said Negreanu, turning over {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{3-Spades}

.

The turn card got Negreanu half of the pot with the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

. Khouiss looked none to pleased as he grunted, "Just like that, huh?" The {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

completed the board, and the two men took their money back from the pot.
