I think its almost certain that he had the King of hearts. If I remember correctly, Hachem had K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and the flop came down Kxx with two hearts. This gave Hachem a set and Black TPTK with the nut flush draw. I think the only way Black could have called Hachems preflop raise and every street like he did until the river was with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Doubt it. In fact, I think Chad actually got it right when he predicted Black had a strong A. This seems even more plausible when you look at the action on every street (which wasn't Black calling KANTER all the way down). Kanter bets. Black, like the aggressive SOB that he is, raises it 4x the bet in a steal attempt. Kanter checks on the turn when he filled up and Black checks behind him, realizing that Kanter is going nowhere. Black then seems to make a crying call on the river when Kanter bets something like 1/7 of the pot. AQ/J/10 seems like the perfect fit. Also, his body language on the river call screamed a no pair/high-card crying call.
Anyone agree?

Finally, somebody else gets it. To me, his reaction to the river bet screamed "I tried to resteal but got caught and now I have just barely enough of this to make a crying call."
