Jody Garaventa had his opponent all in preflop. Garaventa held pocket nines and was behind his opponent's pocket tens. Garaventa had about nine times the chips of his opponent when the money went in.

The flop came down {7-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {4-Spades}. Just as the ESPN cameras focused in, the {9-Diamonds} hit the felt. The {7-Spades} completed the board and Garaventa's full house as he came from behind to win the 5,000 pot. He's now up to 23,000.
