Mess for Hess

With Manuel Cadilhe raising it up to 28,000, James Hess found {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and bumped it up to 70,000. Taylor Larkin looked down at {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} and pushed all in, and after Cadihle had ducked out of the way, Hess called all in for a total of 278,000.

In search of just two outs, Hess was in piping hot water, and that water became no cooler as the dealer placed a {5-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts} board onto the felt. As Hess departed, Erle Mankin pushed his chips in the necessary direction, leading triggering Hess to comment with a chuckle, "I love it when people handle my chips."
