Ken Aldridge was already all in as Melvin McCraney, Joe Ford, and Dennis Morrison went to a flop of 10♣8♣5♥. Ford then bet in the hijack and both opponents called.
Ford bet again on the 5♦ turn and only Morrison called this time. The river was the 2♠ and Ford bet. Morrison called and turned over A♠9♠4♣3♦ for a low, while Ford had J♥10♥10♠8♠ for a full house.
"I had the nut flush draw, ended up with a full house and I still lose. Let me take a picture of this," Aldridge said as his A♣4♦2♣2♦ went into the muck and the bracelet winner made his exit.
