Romano Goes Out in Style

Ray Romano
Ray Romano

Ray Romano was crippled when his jacks couldn't hold up against big slick. Then he got his last 6,000 or so in with {10-Spades}{4-Clubs} on a {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop. Ray was the only one with a pair, but his opponent's {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} meant he'd have to dodge both straight and flush outs along with pair outs. The {k-Hearts} on the turn was a brick. Then the {8-Diamonds} on the river gave Romano's opponent both a straight and a flush, a straight-flush, if you will. Romano hit the rail, but at least ESPN got some good footage first.
