All six players limped in, including Richard Sklar with a J♣ showing. "I might hit a jack," he said.
"You have a gambling problem," Arash Ghaneian added.
Action then checked to fifth street. "I cannot check anymore. I might get thrown out of the casino," Ghaneian said as he bet. Dario Alioto then raised, the rest of the table folded, and Ghaneian called.
Both players checked down the rest of their boards and Ghaneian showed 8♦7♠5♣ for two pair to win the pot.
