Stud:
We caught the action as Layne Flack and an unknown opponent were involved in a heads-up hand.
Flack: (X)(X) - 
- (X)
Opponent: (X)(X) - 
- (X)
On third street Flack's opponent led out for bet of 1,200 and the six-time bracelet winner made the call. When fourth street hit, the opponent continued firing, this time for 2,400. The famously-talkative Flack hesitated as he studied the exposed cards, asking his opponent, "I can see a pair of eights, what else you got?" Flack eventually decided to take another card and made the call.
Fifth and sixth streets brought bets of 2,400 by the opponent and calls by Flack, and when seventh street was distributed the opponent pushed his last 1,000 chips into the pot. Flack appeared to know that he was beat but had to call the last bet given the huge pot at stake. His opponent tabled the 
for two-pair, eights and sevens, and Flack grimaced as he revealed his 
for an unimproved pair of kings.
The opponent received a much needed double up and Flack shipped a decent portion of his stack across the table.
