It Ain't Over Till It's Over, and it May Never be Over

hand 42

SBB Paul. Paul makes it 2.4M. Tuan calls. J-9-3 flop. Check, check. Turn is a 9. Tuan goes all in. Paul folds.

hand 43

SBB Tuan. Raise to 2M. Paul goes all in. Tuan mucks.

hand 44

SBB Paul. He's all in. Tuan calls. Kd JD for Tuan, K-5 offsuit for Paul. Will the King of Kings survive this one? He'll have to be the King of Fives if he's going to. 9.7M in the pot. Flop comes J-T-3! Paul is dead to running fives, or runner-runner straight cards for a split pot. Turn is a queen of hearts. This gives Paul some outs. An ace or a 9 will give him a split pot. He has eight outs... and doesn't get one!
