Default Re: \"Official\" ESPN Coverage of WSOP Main Event: Final 27

Hand 44 - Daniel Bergsdorf has the button in seat 5, Lazar raises to $240,000, Alsancak reraises all in, and Lazar calls. Alsancak shows pocket queens (Qs-Qd), while Lazar has Ah-Jh. As the shorter stack, Alsancak faces potential elimination on this hand. The flop comes Ad-7c-4s, and Lazar takes the lead with a pair of aces. Alsancak needs to catch a queen (two outs) to stay alive. The turn card pairs the board with the 7h, and Alsancak is down to his last chance to make the TV Final Table in the 2005 World Series of Poker.

The river card is -- the QUEEN of hearts!

The crowd goes wild in surprise and applause, as Lazar just sits there, stunned. The media and the ESPN crew seem noticeably disappointed, hoping to get out of here before 6:00 am.

Jack Effel hears a comment from the sidelines, and repeats it on the microphone, to big laughs from the crowd: "Just like on the Internet."
