After a flop of [10c10d2d], Mclean Karr checks the big blind, Shooting Star Miami John Cernuto bets 12,000 from the cutoff, and Karr check-raises to 62,000. Cernuto moves all in for 148,000, and Karr calls with [8d4d] (diamond flush draw). Cernuto shows [Qh10h] for trip tens, and he’ll need it to hold to stay alive.
The turn is the [6c], the river is the [7d], and Mclean Karr rivers a diamond flush to win the pot and eliminate Miami John Cernuto. Karr collects the $5,000 bounty and the autographed t-shirt before posing for the traditional Shooting Star bustout photo with Miami John.
Mclean Karr – 900,000
Miami John Cernuto – Out in 11th Place ($29,300)
After the hand, Dan O’Brien says about Mclean Karr, "I’ve never seen anyone run like this. I’ve never even heard of anyone running like this."
