Spriggs completed and Deering came along. "Do you see what a good man [Deering] is?" asked Allen Kessler. "He puts his cards out in front of the [World Series of Poker logo] circle so we can see them. I want you to take a note of that."
"The cards are hard to see," said a tablemate.
"I ordered the larger ones," said Kessler.
The hand continued with Kessler's larger cards with Deering betting fourth and fifth streets. He only put out a 500 chip on fifth, leading Spriggs to say, "If I was a good player I would raise you." before calling.
Both players checked sixth street, then Deering led out again on seventh. Deering showed king high, and Spriggs breathed a sigh of relief, and put together his eight low. "You tried to snow me!" said Spriggs scooped up the pot.
