Tied All the Way to Fifth

Two players both had A-8-6 on fifth street; one with {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts} versus {A-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. The player with the ace of spades got to bet the whole way because of the suit -- one case where suit ranking matters: spade, heart, diamond, club, highest to lowest, in that order. He split the pot, though -- he turned over A-8-6 for high and the opponent had A-2-7 for low.
