A Couple of Decent Starting Hands, There

Phil Laak and Berry Johnston were just involved in a sizable pot. On a board of {4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}, Johnston put in a bet that was large enough to make the decision difficult for Laak. "Well," Laak concluded, "I can beat one hand," and made the call.

Both players turned over A-A, and chopped the pot.
