Moshe Gavrieli: J♣5♣

Both players had a pair of jacks, but Bohlman had the better kicker, while Gavrieli had a flush draw.

The A♣ on the turn propelled Gavrieli into the lead with a flush, and he just had to fade a fourth club on the river. The 8♠ hit the river, and Bohlman was out in second, while Gavrieli was the champion.
