It's Gotta Be the Shoes

Michael Mizrachi is making a run at the chip lead. On a flop of {9-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {A-Hearts}, he bet 15,000 and was called by Clonie Gowen. He bet 30,000 when the turn came off {4-Hearts}, and again Gowen called. The river was the ace of spades, because it's always the ace of spades. Both players checked. Arieh showed {A-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {4-Spades} {3-Hearts} for top full house; all Gowen could come up with was {A-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} for three aces.

"Do you have every full house?" David Williams asked incredulously. (We would have been happier if he said "Eff you and your never-ending string of boats.") Either way, Gowen takes a hit to 110,000, while Mizrachi flirts with 500,000.
