{A-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

for big slick and saw he was up against his opponents {J-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

. "Put out the king! Put out the king!" Humberto chanted as the dealer began to flop the board. The chant continued as the flop ran {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{7-Clubs}

, yet stopped when the {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

smacked on the turn. Humberto was quite happy, while his opponent packed up and headed for the door. Luckily, he hadn't gotten very far, as the {J-Spades}
