Kathy Liebert has the button in Seat 9. Andy Bloch raises to 180,000 from the small blind and Mike Sexton calls. The flop is {K-Hearts}

and both players check. The turn is the {5-Diamonds}

. Bloch bets 250,000 and Sexton calls. The river is the {5-Spades}

. Bloch fires out another 250,000 and Sexton makes the call.

Bloch shows {K-Spades}

for two pair, kings and fives. Sexton shows J-10 for two pair, jacks and fives, and Bloch rakes in the sizeable pot.

An astute reader points out that FIVE of the players who made today's final table have won a million dollars in a single poker tournament. Patrik Antonius won $1,046,470 as the runner-up of the 2005 Five Diamonds World Poker Classic. Which only reinforces what I think was Mike Sexton's true point -- this final table is loaded.
