In the last hand before the recent break, Johnny "Miracle" Maravilla sent his entire stack across the table after making a failed hero call.
The villain in this case was Eduardo Santi, who held when the flop fell

With the pot containing just 7,000 or so chips, Maravilla decided to employ the massive overbet, tossing 16,000 into the middle. Santi quickly moved all in over the top, putting Santi to the ultimate test if he elected to call.
After tanking for a minute or two, and asking for a count of Santi's stack despite being covered, Maravilla stood and announced his decision.
"I have to call," he said while tabling the . "I have the ace."
Santi coolly revealed his nut straight, and clapped when the turn brought the to leave Maravilla drawing dead. The meaningless
completed the board on the river, and Maravilla headed home with a story to tell his home game buddies.
