When we arrived at the table, the hand was already at the river, and Maria Ho had bet 850K into an estimated 1.5M pot. Viet Van Ho raised to 2 025 000, and Maria went to the tank.
The board was everything but dry, showing 
. Maria finally made the call, keeping about 800K behind, only to find that she had been the victim of an extremely rare event*. Viet Van Ho tabled 
, for a flopped royal flush!
Maria is now crippled, with nothing but a few chips and a good story.
*Odds of flopping a Royal Flush: 1 in 19,600 (given that you have the proper starting hand)
