With the board showing {2-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{9-Spades}{J-Spades}{5-Hearts}, Hoss Colao bet an unknown amount and Dean Metzger raised to 12,700 total. Colao went into the tank, and eventually opted to let technology decide his fate. He opened up a Coin Flip app on his phone.

"Heads I call, tails I fold," he told Metzger.

It landed heads, and Colao stuck to his promise.

"Good call," Metzger said as he tabled {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for ten-high. Colao revealed his winning {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}

"Does it always come up heads?" someone at the tabled asked.

Colao: "No, but I do whatever it says."
