Whenever three of the game's brightest stars are all seated at the same table, our reportorial interest is piqued, but with Scott Clements, Joe Serock, and Mukul Pahuja in the #5, #6, and #7 seats, respectively, we stopped by catch a little pro-on-pro combat.

Although Clements and Serock declined to enter the pot we witnessed, Pahuja decided to test the waters with a 400 c-bet on the {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop after the big blind checked the action.

That player sprung a trap though, raising the minimum to 800 to draw a stare from Mukul - who just recorded one of the most impressive seasons ever on the WPT circuit, ultimately winning Player of the Year honors.

Pahuja called the raise to see the turn come {a-Spades}, and both players checked to see the {9-Hearts} complete the board on the river. Two more taps of the table led to a showdown, but Mukul mucked when his opponent rolled over {8-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the winner.
