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.

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]
