Steve Brecher and Tommy Vedes found themselves in a preflop raising war, with Brecher getting all in against Vedes, who had Brecher covered. Revealed hands showed another race situation.

The board ran out {7-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{10-Spades}....{A-Diamonds}, giving Vedes an ace on the river and sending Brecher to the rail.

Vedes is up to 325,000.
