Action picked up on the river on a board of {9-Spades}{j-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{5-Hearts}.

The first player to act Eric Kurtzman fired out a river bet. Kyle Kitagawa and Mike "Crazy Mike" Thorpe both called.

"Can I show first?" Thorpe said and immediately flipped over {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} for a set of aces.

Kurtzman showed {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and Kitagawa showed {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}, which were both inferior, so Thorpe took the pot.
