Tam Truong raised to 50,000 from under the gun, David Middleton moved all in for 266,000 on the button, and both blinds released.
"I've got two good cards," Middleton told Truong while he tanked. "I'm happy if you call and happy if you fold. I'm here to double up."
Truong laughed.
"I'll be happy to drink beer if you bust me too," Middleton added.
Truong eventually called, showing 
, and he was crushed by Middleton's 
. Truong took the lead when the flop fell 
, however, but Middleton was still drawing live. A queen would give him a better pair and a jack would give him a straight.
The 
on the turn changed nothing, as did the 
on the river, and Middleton graciously shook hands with every player at the table before exiting. He will earn seven times his buy-in for a 15th-place finish, while Truong is up over a million chips.
