{5-Spades}

{5-Hearts}

, Dan Heimiller quickly raised to 4,000 from the small blind. Barry Shulman called behind, and the bettor folded.

Heimiller and Shulman then checked down the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

on the turn and the {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

on the river. When Heimiller showed {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}
