[user22113]

John Myung raised 8,000 from late position and was re-raised by Joe Brandenburg to 38,300. Myung thought for a while then called, showing {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

to Brandenburg's {a-Spades}

{a-Spades}

{7-Spades}

.

"Great call," said Brandenburg to Myung.

But the board came {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{3-Hearts}

{8-Diamonds}

{k-Spades}

and Myung sent most of his stack over to Brandenburg.

Myung was eliminated a few hands later.
