In the small blind, Tim Andrew threw in enough chips to cover Kevin Nomberto's stack, and while he couldn't technically raise to put him at risk, Nomberto was ready to go and splashed in his 3.7 million.
Nomberto was in bad shape, trailing with 
against Andrew's 
.
"I need a straight or spades," Nomberto observed.
The 
flop was unentertaining, but the 
turn gave Nomberto a flush draw and he started cheering for another spade card.
The dealer obliged, turning up the 
on the river to fill Nomberto's backdoor flush draw. Nomberto survived another critical moment and play continued seven-handed.
