We caught up to the following hand on the turn with the board showing {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{3-Clubs}

{7-Spades}

{6-Hearts}

.

Warwick Mirzikinian led out with a 6,000 bet and an unknown opponent, playing from the button, moved all in over the top for about 25,000 in chips. Mirzikinian made the call and tabled {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{5-Spades}

for nothing but an open-ended straight draw, finding himself up against a pocket pair of kings.

As fortune would have it, Mirzikinian was able to complete his straight on the river -- {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

-- to improved to just over 80,000 in chips.

As far as we can tell, that makes him top dawg for the time being.
