"Sick Call, Tamayo!"

Limit Hold'em:

Jonathan Tamayo has the button in Seat 6. He opens the action with a raise. Frank Gary folds in the small blind, and Chris Rentes calls from the big.

The flop comes down {6-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}, and both players check.

Fourth street shows the {10-Hearts}. Rentes checks, Tamayo bets, and Rentes puts in a check-raise. Tamayo calls.

The river is the {7-Spades}. Rentes bets out and Tamayo makes the instant call. The hands are turned over, drawing a big reaction from the crowd. Rentes tables {4-Hearts} {5-Hearts}, having missed both of his draws. Tamayo shows down king high, and wins the pot with a stellar call on the river.

The crowd erupts with praise for the winner: "Sick call, Tamayo!" And from across the room: "How do you make that call?!"
