A clash occurred at table 503 between two of the most talkative players left in the tournament.

Jason Adams raised in middle position and Ray Fishman called in the big blind.

"Daddy's home!" Adams exclaimed on the flop of 4♦K♣3♥ rolled out and he proceeded to bet after Fishman checked.

"I am so confused," Fishman responded as he put in the chip to call.

Both of them continued to banter on the turn 5♥ where again Fishman check-called a bet from Adams

"How about a high and black river dealer?" asked Adams as the river peeled off a 10♦ and Fishman put him all in for 5,000 which Adams immediately called.

Jason Adams: A♠A♦6♠2♦ All in
Ray Fishman: A♣8♥5♣4♣

Adams had both the wheel and a six-high straight to scoop both halves of the pot and the Omaha regular screamed "Daddy's home, like he never left as he raked in the pot."
