On a completed board of {6-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and about 5,500 in the middle, Toby Boas was in the cutoff and faced a bet of 2,500 from his opponent in the small blind.

Boas made the call to see his opponent flip over {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}. Boas showed {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a turned second pair which was good to drag a pot that puts his stack over double its starting value.
