It was 2004, and Annie Duke was about to win $2 million.
I'm all in.
And with that top pair, Phil Hellmuth going all in with his 450,000 chips.
Annie Duke put the pressure on Phil when she check raised him.
This was the final hand of the World Series of poker, tournament of champions.
They had these incredible hall of Fame players, like Doyle Brunson, who was a Hall of famer, Johnny Chan, who was a Hall of famer, and then Phil Hellmuth, who has the most championships of anyone in the history of the world Series of poker.
And then there was me.
Annie calls the all in, and Phil sees what he's up against.
Annie and this guy Phil were the last two at the table.
And Annie is overcome with emotion, seeing how close she is to winning this championship.
Annie's crying.
Phil standing up, pacing back and forth.
The dealer's laying out the cards that will determine who wins.
Annie has control of his hand.
Now here comes the turn.
It's a seven.
No help for Phil.
Annie was the only woman in this competition.
She'd knocked out eight guys, eight of the best players in the world to get to this point.
Annie Duke is now one card away from $2 million.
