It was Shannon Shorr who got things started by completing third street, but it was James Van Alstyne who finished them off on the river. Van Alstyne called Shorr's bets on each street until sixth street, where he led into Shorr. Shorr called there, then called again on the river. Van Alstyne turned up {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

{3-Diamonds}

for a seven-high straight and a 7-6 low to scoop both halves.

Van Alstyne is up to 850,000. Shorr is down to just 320,000.
