Nearly 60,000 was already in the middle as Joe Ghio and Aaron Werner went to the turn on a board of 8?8?A?4?. Werner then bet 18,000 from early position and Ghio called in the small blind.
The river was the 7? and Werner bet 30,000, sending Ghio deep into the tank. "Sorry, guys," he said as the minutes ticked by. Ghio eventually folded and Werner took the massive pot without a showdown.
"Ace-queen of diamonds," tablemate Matt Salsberg said to Ghio.
"Maybe," Ghio replied.
