We caught up to this hand with the board showing {7-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. Zorlu Menderes had passed the first action to Medic, who'd bet out 23,000. Menderes then raised to 53,000 and Medic made the call.

At this point, there was about 160,000 in the pot and Menderes open-shoved after the dealer plopped down the {Q-Spades} on 5th Street -- a bet worth exactly 133,000.

"I think you're bluffing this time," Medic said to his nemesis. Menderes said motionless, his hands cupped together at his chin, and his head and face covered by the hood of his sweatshirt and a dark pair of sunglasses.

"Call," Medic announced, tabling the {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}.

Menderes knuckled the table, signifying Medic's call was good, as he revealed the {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for complete air.

Medic stacked up right around 588,000 in chips after the hand.

"Boy am I in the wrong game," commented 'Action' Dan Harrington afterwards.
