Featured Table: Raymond Rahme vs. Philip Hilm for 5.085 Million

Scotty Nguyen has the button in seat 4, Philip Hilm limps from the small blind for 120,000, and Raymond Rahme checks his option. The flop comes {6-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, Hilm bets 120,000, and Rahme calls. The turn card is the {2-Hearts}, Hilm checks, Rahme bets 250,000, Hilm raises to 750,000, and Rahme thinks for over a minute before he calls.

The river card is the {4-Clubs}, Hilm bets 1.5 million, and Rahme quickly says, "I call." Hilm turns over {K-Spades}{3-Hearts} for trip threes, but Rahme shows {6-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for a six-high straight. Raymond Rahme wins the pot worth 5.085 million, and his South African fans in the audience (a much larger group than before the dinner break) breaks into song.
