We caught up to this hand on the flop. Casey McCarrel and Jose Luis Velador were in a heads up pot with the board reading {K-Spades} {5-Hearts} {2-Diamonds}. They both checked the flop. The turn brought the {2-Clubs} and McCarrel led out for 20,000. Velador raised to 120,000 total, which was just enough to put McCarrel all in. After a few minutes of deliberation, during which time a clock was called, McCarrel made the call. The players showed:

McCarrel: {8-Hearts} {8-Spades}
Velador: {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds}

The turn and river blanked and McCarrel was sent packing. Velador's heater continues and he now sits behind a stack of over 770,000 chips.
