"How much more is it?" asked Crawford.
"Not that much more," responded someone from the table.
"But how much? Over 400,000 more?" asked Crawford.
"No, not that much," was the dealer's response, prompting a call from Crawford.
"I've got eight high," said Crawford as she turned up the 
. Zazay held the 
.
"Yeah, that made no sense," chimed in Irani.
"But now I've got to hold," said the at-risk Zazay.
The flop was an very interesting one with the 
falling to give Crawford an open-ended straight draw. The turn missed her with the , as did the on the river. Crawford couldn't connect, and Zazay held for the double. He was all in for 784,000 total.
