"Ten . . . TEN!"

After Thorsten Schafer raised to 12,500 preflop, Aaron Jones moved all in for 82,000 and received a quick call from his opponent.

Schafer: {A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Jones: {K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

Jones was at risk and in need of some help, which he found on the {10-Spades}{J-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop. When the {10-Diamonds} appeared on the river, Schafer began calling out, "Ten. TEN!" Indeed, if quads were put out on the board, Schafer's ace would play and eliminate Jones.

While that would have been an interesting turn of events, it was not meant to be as the {2-Clubs} bricked. Jones doubled on the hand while Schafer took a hit to his big stack.
