We just witnessed the hand of the tournament. No, it doesn't involve a massive pot, a clash between multiple super well-known players or some crazy controversy, but just read on and you'll understand.

Winner of Event #2: �1,090 No-Limit Hold'em Andrew Hinrichsen raised from middle position to 750. Daniel Walker called from behind him and then action folded to Thierry Gogniat in the small blind. He made the call and Lionel Cohen called from the big blind.

The four players saw the flop come down {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and action checked to Hinrichsen. He bet 1,500 and Walker folded. Action fell back on Gogniat and this is where this hand started to get downright awesome. Gogniat check-raised to 3,500 and Cohen folded. Hinrichsen began to tank and was studying Gogniat. When Gogniat realized he was under the glare of Hinrichsen, he pulled open his white, button-up collared shirt to reveal the upper left part of his chest. What was there? A full-blown colored tattoo of the {Q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, just fitting for this flop.

All Hinrichsen could do was laugh and then he tossed his hand in. Gogniat picked up one of his cards and turned over the {7-Hearts}, to which the entire table burst out laughing.
