Short-stacks Engin Sancalctaroglu and John Lestina have just been eliminated from the main event during the same hand by big stack Steven Fung. Layne Flack played the hand back for us:

Fung opened the pot with a raise to 26,000 from early position and Sancalctaroglu moved in over the top for approximately 100,000. Action then folded around the table to Lestina who shipped his stack in as well (~100,000) and Fung called them both, setting up a three-way showdown:

Fung: {K-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Sancalctaroglu: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Lestina: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}

The board then ran out {Q-Spades}{4-Spades}{J-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} giving Fung a Broadway straight to send both of his opponents packing.

"Just a cold call for a hundred thousand with king-ten," joked Flack after the hand. "You did just wake up, didn't you," he continued.

"You'd call there too," Fung retorted.

"What the f**k!" Flack fired back in jest.

As I finished jotting down the details, Fung looked up after stacking up his chips and asked, "Can you write down that it went in on the turn?"

Fung stacked up 840,000 in chips after the hand.
