After a flop of Heart 6Diamond 5Diamond 3, a player is all in from middle position for 140,000, and David Gonzalez calls from the button. Daniel Auckland moves all in over the top from under the gun for 156,000, and Gonzalez calls the little bit extra, creating a side pot worth 32K.

David Gonzalez:  Spade 2Club 2  (pair of deuces, gutshot straight draw)
Daniel Auckland:  Spade AClub A  (pair of aces)
Middle Position:  Heart 9Diamond 9  (pair of nines)

The turn card is the Heart Q, the river card is the Spade 3, and the aces hold up for Auckland to win the entire pot, doubling thru Gonzalez and eliminating the short stack from Day 1A.

Daniel Auckland  –  535,000  (54 bb)
David Gonzalez  –  240,000  (24 bb)
