Stig Top Goes Big Top

[user38449]

Gettin' Stiggy with it

Stig Top Rasmussen just took down a monster pot, eliminating American Joseph Udine from the tournament in the process. All of the money went in on a {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{K-Spades}

{10-Clubs}

flop and at the showdown, big Stig tabled {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{7-Spades}

for top and bottom pair; Udine showed {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

and was drawing two ways to a straight. The turn and river brought running queens and a relieved Rasmussen stacked Udine's chips, bringing his chip count up to 280,000.

"That's not what I wanted to see," said Stig, referring to Udine's hand. "I was hoping he had king-six!"
