Woodward finally decides to raise a button, making it 750,000 to go. Pieter de Korver calls. Hooray! The flop:

de Korver:

![{6-Spades}](/img/cards/6s.gif)
Woodward:
![{6-Clubs}](/img/cards/6c.gif)
![{4-Hearts}](/img/cards/4h.gif)
De Korver has middle pair, with not a great kicker, but surprisingly he's ahead of Woodward's middle pair, worse kicker! The only difference is that Woodward has a heart draw to go with his pair. He's going to need another pair or a heart to stay in this tournament.
Turn:

Woodward looks deflated. Even though he has more outs to a chop now, he seems to know that the title is not in his future. He's right; the river falls
