From under the gun, Chris Ferguson raises it up to a friendly 700. Maybe a little too friendly though, he gets five callers to come with him.

The six players see a flop of {J-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}. Ferguson leads out for 2,500. One player calls, and the button, Nick Frank, moves all in for an additional 3,550. Ferguson is next again, and he moves all in for another 8,150 on top. The original caller overcalls both bets as well, and the three men turn over their hands:

Ferguson: {9-Hearts} {10-Spades} {J-Spades} {Q-Spades}
Frank: {8-Spades} {8-Clubs} {A-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}
Overcaller: {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {7-Clubs}

The turn is the {6-Diamonds}, and the river is the {J-Diamonds}. Frank wins the main pot with his full house, Ferguson wins the side pot with trips, and the third opponent is crippled when he fails to connect with his flush draw.

As a result of that hand, Ferguson moved up a little bit and now sits at 16,300.
