Woo-Chi-Wawa!
Marc Goldman raised to 500 from the hijack, and only Raul Pantoja made the call from the cutoff.
Goldman continued for 600 on the 10♠9♣2♦, which Pantoja called.
There was no slowing down from Goldman on the J♥ turn; this time, he put out 1,600. Undeterred, Pantoja called to see a river.
That river was the 3♥. This time, Goldman constructed a more substantial bet, putting out 7,000. Pantoja didn't waste any time calling, but it was immediate bad news. Goldman turned over K♣Q♣ for the turned nut straight, and Pantoja returned his cards to the dealer face down.
"Woo-Chi-Wawa!" was the cry from Goldman, and not for the first time today. This prompted one of his tablemates to join in, and then, one table over, another player let out the same celebratory noise.
