Richard Sklar completed, Dario Alioto raised, and Thomas Taylor, Arash Ghaneian, and Sklar called.
Action was checked through on fourth street before Sklar bet on fifth. Alioto and Ghaneian called, while Taylor folded.
The three players checked on sixth. "I need one more diamond. If I get a baby diamond I'm going to scoop it," Ghaneian said as action checked to him on seventh.
He instead slammed down the 10♣. Sklar showed 4♠3♠3♥ for two pair and Alioto and Ghaneian both mucked.
"Wow. I missed and still scooped," Sklar said as he collected the pot.
