Roger Hairabedian has just lost a whole lot more, and this time it was Steve O'Dwyer who took some of his chips.
The board read 
when Hairabedian check-called a 85,000-chip bet. On the river the 
hit and Hairabedian checked again. O'Dwyer threw out 134,000 and Hairabedian went into the tank for several minutes.
Many times he seemed to be close to calling, and eventually he did. O'Dwyer tabled 
and with a full house he took down this pot. Hairabedian looked far from happy as he saw his stack dwindle down a lot.
