Lucky Gum?

[user101598]

No-Limit Hold'em

Jesse Martin opened to 8,500 from the hijack seat, and Minh Ly moved all in for 58,000 from the small blind. Martin went deep into the tank, and while he was thinking, Josh Arieh reached into his pocket for some gum. Arieh asked if anyone would like a piece, and only Ly reached his hand out. Upon seeing this, Martin asked for a piece as well.

"I have to make sure it's not lucky gum," he added. "I call."

Martin: {10-Diamonds} {10-Clubs}
Ly: {4-Diamonds} {4-Spades}

Ly was crushed, but the flop fell {5-Spades} {2-Spades} {6-Hearts} , giving him four extra outs to a straight. The {7-Hearts} on the turn added another four outs, and the {8-Clubs} spiked on the river, giving him an eight-high straight and the winning hand.

"Is there a big game running?" Arieh asked Ly. "Is that why your in a rush?"

Ly admitted that there is a big ring game running right now, but he's still alive and now above 100,000 chips. Martin stepped away from the table to recollect himself, and is just below 100,000 after the bad beat.
