"Not Boring Anymore!"

Level 6 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Jason Mercier raised to 14,000 from the hijack, Ben Lamb three-bet to either 38,000 or 48,000 from the small blind (he announced the amount softly and put two T25k green chips in), Mercier four-bet shoved for about 355,000 and Lamb tanked for a bit before he called.

Mercier: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Lamb: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

"All in and a call!" announced the dealer.

Antonio Esfandiari rushed over to survey the situation, but was disappointed to see it was likely to be a chop.

"Boring," said Esfandiari, before walking away.

However, the flop came down {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts} to give Mercier a flush draw.

"Not boring anymore!" shouted Daniel Negreanu from the table. Esfandiari rushed back to watch the conclusion of the hand, but it ran out {Q-Diamonds} turn and {A-Diamonds} river, chopping the pot.
