Hand #40 - Dean Bui / Luis Velador

Osmin Dardon has the button in Seat 8. Luis Velador raises to 57,000 and Dean Bui calls. The flop is {A-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds}. Bui bets 105,000, Velador moves all in and it's 242,000 more for Bui to call. Bui starts slamming his chips around as he tanks and tries to elicit a few words out of Velador who remains silent, chomping away on his gum. After much hemming and hawing, Bui calls.

Bui {A-Spades} {J-Diamonds}

Velador {A-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}

The turn is the {3-Spades} and it's a chopped pot. Bui jumps out of his seat in anguish, having had his opponent crushed on the flop. The river is the meaningless {8-Clubs} and they split the pot.
