Devo Doubles on Wild Hand

Oh...my....god. We just witnessed a wild hand that saw Bryan Devonshire double up late in the night. We walked over as we saw ESPN telling the dealer to hold up. When we got there, we saw that Devo held {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} on a flop that read {10-Spades}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts}. His opponent held {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, and Devo was well out in front. The cameras got all set up, and the dealer revealed the turn: {10-Hearts}.

This drew a groan from the whole table, as it gave his opponent trips. Devo's opponent told the dealer to hold up to make sure the cameras were in place, and Devo just sat silently in his chair. After a few more seconds of delay, the dealer showed the river.

River: {a-Diamonds}

The whole tabled erupted as Devo binked the ace on the river to get a winning full house. His table mate David Pham said "I folded the last ace!" and dug it out of the muck. Devo just let out a wry smile, as he started stacking his chips. After that hand, Devo is back up to 26,000.
