We just had a big hand involving 2010 November Niner Filippo Candio.
There was 3,000 in the middle when the flop came 
. Candio tossed out a bet of 1,700 from early position, then his opponent on the button raised to 4,200. Soon Candio was all in for his entire stack of 31,300, and his opponent -- covered by Candio -- made the call.
Candio showed 
for the nut flush draw plus outs to a wheel, while his opponent turned over 
for two pair. There was a delay while the players waited for the cameras to arrive to shoot the hand's conclusion, during which Candio stood quietly, looking up toward the ceiling and swaying back and forth.

!

and a brief pump of the fist from Candio. He'd eliminated an opponent, and moves up to 66,000.
