Big O
Sammy Farha and David "Bakes" Baker were heads-up on a flop of J♠3♣10♠.
Farha had a large bet in front of him from under the gun and Baker had already shoved for over 100,000 on the button.
Farha tanked a while, but eventually said, "Alright, lets go," and called to put Baker at risk.
David "Bakes" Baker: A♠Q♥4♠3♦2♥
Sammy Farha: A♥J♦7♦4♥3♠
Farha held the lead with two pair, but would need to fade a lot of outs against Baker's flush and straight draws.
The J♣ turn and J♥ river improved Farha to runner-runner quads, which got a "Ah c'mon, I don't need that much!" from Farha.
Baker took the loss in stride and wished his tablemates good luck as he exited the tournament area.
Farha is now among the chip leaders with over 300,000.
