Crazy Bad Beat Kicks Off Day 6 of WSOP Main Event

It didn't take long for Day 6 of the World Series of Poker Main Event to produce its first jaw-dropping hand.

Just a few minutes into Saturday's action, one of the most brutal coolers of the tournament sent Go Kato to the rail in a hand that looked destined to end in a chop. Instead, Lauri Saaskilahti found the only possible way to win the pot, delivering a beat that would make anyone barf up their breakfast, lunch or dinner.

If this isn't the sickest elimination of Day 6, it'll take something special to top it.
