Big-O

With about 8,000 chips already in the middle and the board reading {Q-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}, the player in the small blind bet 2,500, Alan Sternberg raised to 12,500 from middle position, and John Racener moved all in from the button for about 27,000. The small blind folded, Sternberg called to put Racener at risk, and the two players tabled their hands.

Sternberg: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Racener: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}

Both players had the nut low draw, but Sternberg had the lead for the high half with his pair of kings and Racener had a wheel wrap. The {A-Clubs} on the turn made Racener's wheel and put him firmly in the lead, the {9-Spades} river changed nothing, and Racener scooped the pot to double up.
