Big-O

We arrived at the table to find Calen McNeil all in and his tournament life on the line. There was also a massive side pot brewing up between Allen Cunningham and Jonathan Shah. The board read {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and the action was on Shah who made a pot-sized bet of 17,025. Cunningham thought for a moment and then check-raised all in. Shah quickly called and was the player at risk for around 35,000.

All three hands were tabled with just one card to come. Cunningham held {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} while Shah turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. McNeil was cheering for one card to scoop the entire pot with {j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs}. "Give me a nine!" McNeil cheered.

The river was the {6-Diamonds} and Cunningham made the nut flush with the best low hand to scoop the massive side pot. He chopped the main pot with McNeil who had the nut low and Shah headed for the exit doors.
