"I Wish I Could Run Like That In the Pot-Limit Omaha Tournament!"
When we walked to David Chiu's table, he made a motion with his chips like he might be ready to move all in at any time, so we stuck around to watch for a bit.
Our observation was correct as the first hand that we watched at that table, Chiu did in fact move all in. One player limped under the gun and in the next seat over, Chiu thrust his chips into the pot with authority, moving all in. The player in the seat next to his called. Action folded to the big blind who moved all in over the top with a cover stack. The under the gun limper folded.
"Oops," Chiu said, laughing.
The original caller thought about it for a bit before eventually making the call as well creating a three way all in and chance to tripple up for David Chiu.

Big Blind:
Chiu was way behind but after the flop of he had picked up a huge advantage. Since neither player was holding a club either, Chiu just had to fade a queen. The turn was the and the river was the , eliminating the player who held and tripling up David Chiu in the process.
"I knew the three was coming!" he said excitedly. "I wish I could run like that in the pot-limit omaha tournament, not here."
