He Stole The Chips From You, Daikini

When we arrived at Kevin Pollak's table a player in late position was busy opening up the pot to 1,800. The player in the small blind called, along with Kevin Pollak in the big blind.

On the {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop, the small blind and Pollak checked and the preflop aggressor fired our 3,300. The small blind folded and Pollak made the call. The {a-Spades} then hit the turn and both remaining players checked. A {2-Diamonds} then hit the turn and Pollak led for 6,000. Pollak's opponent opted to raise it up to 16,000 here and with a call from Pollak, the two players turned their hands over.

Pollak: {a-Clubs}{6-Hearts}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{9-Spades}

Pollak's two-pair wasn't good enough for the flush of his opponent as the Hollywood star lost a chunk of his chips.
