Jerry Buss From Downtown!

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Jerry Buss started a hand with about 2,700 and was all in against two opponents going to seventh street, one of which was Eli Elezra. The third opponent missed his draw and mucked his hand, Elezra showed two pair, Nines and Eights. Buss began to peel his last card and when he was finished he confidently fanned out three diamonds, cards that completed his flush to "triple" up and scoop the near 9,000 chip pot.

Elezra is still healthy with about 19,500 but would have been one of the larger stacks in the room had he won that hand.
