"Let's get this over with..."

Oh, the agony...
Oh, the agony...
So said Andrew Hiscox after moving all in for his last 350,000, over the top of a 50,000 preflop raise from Ernst Hermans. Barry Forrester had called Hermans' raise before Hiscox moved all in, and when Hermans folded to the reraise, Forrester made the call:

Hiscox: {6-Spades}{5-Spades}
Forrester: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

The ensuing board ran out {K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} giving Hiscox a pair of fives, which was all it took to steal the pot away from Forrester.

After the hand, Hiscox improved to 800,000 in chips while Forrester dropped to 550,000.
