From middle position, Ketul Nathwani raised to 115,000. Alfonso Amendola made the call from the big blind. The flop was checked by both players after the {8-Clubs}

fell.

The turn brought the {Q-Spades}

and Amendola checked. Nathwani fired 160,000 and Amendola called.

The river card was the {4-Diamonds}

and Amendola checked. Nathwani fired 460,000 and this sent Amendola into the tank for a long several minutes.

"I really like this pot, I don't want to lose it," said Amendola. "Will you show me?"

"I'll tell you what, I'll flip a coin and you call it. If you get it right, I'll show," responded Nathwani.

After another minute or so passed, Amendola mucked, saying, "Dealer, dealer, what are you doing to me here?!?!"

Amendola then tossed Nathwani a coin which had Mickey Mouse on one side and the number "1" on the other. "Which side are you?" asked Nathwani.

"I'm Mickey," responded Amendola.

Nathwani tossed the coin in the air and it landed in favor of Amendola. Nathwani then showed the {K-Spades}
