Hard to Kill

Steve 'The Big Show' Topakas has defied all odds, surviving an unthinkable amount of come-from-behind situations to stay alive in the tournament. Moments ago, we witnessed another one.

Topakas open-shoved all in from under-the-gun holding {K-Diamonds}

and was called by Jurgen Wenigwiester in the big blind, who woke up to queens.

The flop came {5-Hearts}

flop gave Topakas a pair of extra outs, and runner-runner straight possibilities to chop the pot, but he got all the help he needed on the turn when the {K-Clubs}

rolled off giving him two pair. The river blanked -- {7-Spades}

-- and Topakas' railbirds went bonkers.

After the hand, one of the players at Topakas' table commented, "He's like Steven Segal; you can't kill the guy!"

After the hand, Topakas was back up to 161,000 in chips.
