The board read {10-Spades}{2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{9-Spades} on the turn when we spotted the action at Andy Bloch's table. John Moore led out for 4,100 from early position and Bloch raised to 11,600. After a long tank, Moore spoke up.

"Can you count his chips?" Moore asked the dealer.

Bloch complied, cutting down the 17,125 he had behind, and Moore made the call.

The river was the {3-Spades} and Moore set Bloch all-in. He made the call and turned over {9-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for top set, but Moore had rivered the nut flush with {A-Spades}{8-Spades}.

"Ugh. That's a bad beat," offered one of Bloch's tablemates. Bloch shrugged and made his way out of the Amazon Room, ESPN's cameras in hot pursuit.
