A player was all in for 30,000 and Daniel Harwood called. Cord Garcia moved all in for 70,000, and Harwood went into the tank. As Garcia was about to call time, the floor man did so, and Harwood had 30 seconds to make his decision. Harwood called, and all three players' cards were turned up.

Garcia: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}
Harwood: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

The board ran out {6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, and Garcia spiked his king to win the massive pot.
