Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Juan Rodriguez jammed from the button, and Nariman Yaghmai called for his stack of 10,900,000 from the big blind.

Nariman Yaghmai: A3 All in
Juan Rodriguez: K8

Rodriguez had been slowly extending his lead over Yaghmai, and now had his chance to win the tournament.

The flop came down 2107, keeping Yaghmai's ace-high in the lead. Rodriguez's rail continued to chant from the stands, "King, king, king!"

Their prayers went unanswered on the turn as the 5 joined the board.

Only a king or an eight would win it for Rodriguez, while Yaghmai would take over the chip lead if a brick fell.

The dealer burned a card and then put out the K on the river, causing Rodriguez and his rail of around twenty to erupt into celebration that could be heard throughout the entire Paris Ballroom and beyond.

Yaghmai had to settle for a runner-up finish, while Rodriguez was crowned champion of Event #39: $5,000 Seniors High Roller No-Limit Hold'em.
