Heads-up between Paul Wasicka and Jamie Gold, the last 2 players in the 2006 WSOP, who would come first...

Both players limped in pre flop, with 800,000 in the pot.
The flop is Q clubs,8 hearts,5 hearts.

Paul Wasicka bets $1.5 million and Jamie Gold moves all-in. Wasicka calls and flips over pocket tens (10 hearts & 10 spades).

Gold immediately jumped up pumping his fist in the air to flip over Q spades and 9 clubs, for a pair of queens. The turn is Ace of diamonds, and the river is 4 clubs. For $12 million dollars, Jamie Gold is the latest WSOP winner.
