Walking on Broken Glass

With 1,450 already in the pot and the board showing {K-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {3-Clubs}, Manny Stavropoulos opens with an 1,100 bet. Gursel Ali then raises to 2,500 and gets called by both Brad Walker and Stavropoulos.

The turn brings the {5-Hearts} and Walker moves all in for 4,300. Stavropoulos folds but Ali calls and tables {3-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} for a full house; Walker turns over {K-Spades} {9-Spades} for two pair.

The {6-Spades} is the last card off the deck and Ali's boat holds up to win the pot and eliminate Walker from the tournament.
