Paul Sampson moves all in on the button and Jaime Staples calls out of the small blind. Staples is at risk for his last 595,000 and the cards are tabled.
It’s another race situation with Staples’ [5c][5d] up against Sampson’s [As][9s].
The flop is [Qh][Js][6s], giving Sampson a lot of outs with two overs and the nut flush draw. The turn is the [7h], keeping Staples in the lead, and the river is the [Jd].
Staples fades all of the spades, nines and aces in the deck to double up and stay alive.
