Max Greenwood and Matt Ross got tangled up in a big preflop pot, ending with all of Ross' 300,000 chips going into the middle of the table. Greenwood looked him up with {J-Spades} {J-Clubs}, and Ross was in a bad way with {8-Diamonds} {8-Clubs}.

Not to worry.

Right in the door came the {8-Hearts}, and Ross immediately shot out of his chair yelling, "Da! Da! Daaaa!" In the end, the board ran {3-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {K-Spades} {2-Clubs}, securing Ross a come-from-behind double up. He's up over 600,000 now, leaving Greenwood with just over 100,000.
