Cowboy Rides Off Into the Sunset
With about 15,000 in the pot and a board reading 
, "Cowboy" John Land bet 5,000 from the big blind, leaving himself 32,000 behind. Action was then on Gil George on the button and he proceeded to move all in. Land thought long and hard before making the call and turning over 
for trips. Unfortunately for him, George revealed 
for a runner-runner straight and Land's day came to an end.
