This is pretty pathetic (from pokernews.com):

The Second Bust Out of Day 1b

One player raises, and gets four callers. Five players see a flop of K-Q-4 with two spades. The original raiser bets 1,000, another player raises to 3,500, and the raiser calls. (The other three players fold.)

The turn card is the {9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]}, putting three spades on the board. Unfortunately, we don't know how the action went on the turn.

The river card pairs the board with another Q, so the board is K-Q-4-9-Q with three spades. There's a lot of potential on that board.

On the river, both players get all their money in the pot. The original raiser excitedly says, "Top pair" and shows K-J offsuit. He has two pair, kings and queens, with a jack kicker. The other player says, "Full house," and shows 4-4 for fours full of queens.

The player with K-J missed being the first bustout by about a minute.

[/ QUOTE ]

Standard play obv. What's he gonna do? Fold TOP PAIR? Geez...

Think of it this way if nobody had Q-anything, K-K, 4-4, 9-9, J-10, any two spades, A-A, A-K and probably a few more I'm forgetting, he was way good. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

STAKE people, STAKE. Not "steak." Or am I missing some inside 2+2 joke?

After the dinner break a woman with 40,000+ chips who I had as a major target called off in one hand $35,000 of those chips on a 55Kxx board. She had K9 and was obviously beat by a 5 but just kept calling. It hurt to watch because I wanted those chips!

Pretty obvious who her teacher was. The only question here is if she went on an annoying coffehouse rant whilst trying to get action on the end.

Jane Gold Busts a Player
Jane Gold, mother of 2006 WSOP Champion Jamie Gold, knocked out a player. She opened up for a 1,200 raise. Her opponent reraised to 12K. She called. The flop was K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]-9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]-6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and both players checked. The turn was the Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Her opponent bet 5K and she called. The river was the 10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Her opponent bet 2K, she raised to 10K. He called for 3K total and was all in. Her opponent flipped over A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]-Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. She tabled 10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]-10 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] for a set of tens. She won the pot and sent her opponent to the rail.
