[user75032]

Short-stacked Jim Hartley was all in preflop with {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

and called by Michael Casella's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{10-Clubs}

. With appropriate pause for ESPN to establish their shots, the dealer burned and produced a flop of {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{6-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

.

"Oo, sweat, sweat," said one of the players not involved in the hand as Hartley had picked up all the diamond outs to go along with his out to a pair of threes. The {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

on the turn didn't help Hartley, but the {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

did. Hartley doubled up to 430,000, while Casella fell to 754,000.
