The final board read {5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Ernie Lewis could be heard ordering another drink even though his first was still half full.

A quick scan of the scene told the tale. Lewis got it all in against Davis with the best of it, holding {Q-Spades}{k-Spades} to Davis' dominated {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. The flop came clean for Lewis, but the turn and river fit snugly with Davis' cards to create a runner-runner straight.

Shortly thereafter, Davis capitalized on the momentum and went from nearly dead to deadlocked in the match, taking the rest of Lewis' chips to force a deciding third game.
