When we reached the table, Scott Baumstein had 4,800 sitting in front of him on a board of {8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades}. Kristijonas Andrulis raised to what looked like 20,000 or so, Baumstein announced all in, doubling-fisting two stacks forward, and Andrulis snap-called the 85,900-chip bet.

"Wow," someone said at the table. "This is a big one."

Baumstein quickly turned over {6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for a turned straight, and half a heartbeat lader Andrulis showed {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for the stone-cold nuts.

The {a-Spades} bricked off on the river, and Andrulis was shipped the massive pot. Baumstein needed a second to collect his thoughts, and promptly stepped away from the table.
