Heimiller called, and then called once more after the on the river. Chow showed for trip aces and the second nut low. "Scoopscoop! Scoopscoop!" shouted Chow's friends on the rail, and he did exactly that.
Chow's fans are the only ones making noise at the final table, and as their next round of beers was just delivered, they started singing Happy Birthday to Chow.
