Battle of Mike and Mike
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Mike Gorodinsky raised on the button to 60,000, and Michael "Texas Mike" Moncek jammed all in from the small blind. The two players had a brief discussion about whether Texas Mike was playing crazy, before Gorodinsky made the call.
Michael Moncek: 5♥5♣ 
Mike Gorodinsky: A♥J♣
The runout of 4♠6♥7♦8♥8♦ gave Moncek a straight, and a double up in this hand.
