Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

With a completed board of {J-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} showing and 9,200 in the middle, Jack Sinclair bet 10,000 and Kevin Calenzo moved all in for only 13,500. Sinclair was pained and had a dry smile on the face. Another player at the table suggested: "new shorts, please." After more than three minutes, Sinclair called with the {K-}{J-Clubs} and Calenzo showed {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the straight to double.

Sinclair busted shortly after and a far bigger pot would play out on the very same table minutes later. The turn showed {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{8-Spades} and there weren't that many chips in the middle by then, just some 20,000. However, Erik Garmans and Timothy Burden got into a raising war in which the former ended up all all in for 57,000. Burden called after some consideration and showed the {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} for top set.

"Why did you wait so long?" Garmans asked and wanted to muck his cards. As part of the all in showdown, he had to reveal his {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and the {J-Hearts} fell on the river.

"Oh, jack nine would have been a straight," Garmans then nodded and headed to the rail after gathering all his belongings.
