Level 8
: 500/1,000, 10,000 ante
On the last hand before the break, Edward Spaulding opened to 2,500, and got four callers.
The action checked to Spaulding on the 
flop, and Spaulding bet 9,500. Only Young Hilliard, in the cutoff, called.
With the pot already over 30,000, both players checked the 
turn. Spaulding put out 6,000, less than one-fifth pot, on the 
river.
"You made a good call earlier," said Spaulding to Young. It's unknown what happened on the previous hand Spaulding was referring to, but in this hand Hilliard raised to 15,000. Spaulding called, but his 
was no good against Hilliard's 
for the nut flush.
