John Phan is all in preflop for 3,075, Chris McCormack moves all in over the top, and Gary Tighe calls, covering them both.
Gary Tighe: [Ah2s]
Chris McCormack: [KdKh]
John Phan: [AsJc]
The board comes [5h4c3hQcJs], and Tighe flops a wheel to bust both McCormack and Phan on the same hand. John Phan is a Shooting Star, so Tighe collects the $5,000 bounty and an autographed t-shirt.
Tighe tells us he is the great nephew of George Herman Ruth Jr. — better known as the greatest baseball player who ever lived, Babe Ruth.
