Steven Ware

Steven "Cornell Fiji" Ware raised to 250 from the button, a player in the small blind reraised to 750, and Ware called.

The flop came {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

. The small blind bet 900, and Ware called. The turn was the {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

. This time the SB checked, Ware bet 900, and his opponent called.

The river was the {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

. The SB checked, and Ware overbet 6,200. His opponent called, at which point Ware sheepishly said "Ace-high." His opponent showed {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

for queens.

Then Ware showed his cards -- {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

-- and realized he'd backed into the straight on the end. Ware is now up to 33,000.
