hit and Ohel called another bet. The river was the and Sklar lead once again; Ohel called.
"Gin rummy," Sklar yelled out as he threw

"I don't care about the bracelet! Just give me the money," said Sklar with a wry smile.

The players at the table laughed and offered to take the bracelet from Sklar, who's in control of this final table for now.
