We just witnessed the tail end of an enormous pot between two Germans, Ralf Westphal and Peter Triphaus. A heap of chips went into the pot on a turned board showing 
, each player committing their full stacks of close to 50,000. We weren't sure who was at risk until the countdown, so for the time being it's cards up, gents:
Westphal: 
Triphaus: 
Westphal was well ahead with his two pair plus the flush draw, and Triphaus was looking for an offsuit king or jack to keep him in the hunt. The river was the 
, though, improving his fellow countryman to the winning flush and sending a pot of more than 115,000 chips in his direction.
When the chips were counted down, Triphaus is left with just 2,600 to work with.
