Ray Henson and Papa Karn
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Run Good Ambassador Ray Henson and Papa Karn took turns three-bet shoving on each other. Both times the other one folded.
The first hand, Karn shoved and Henson thought about calling for a moment.
"It's a good hand," Karn said pointing to his cards. Henson mucked.
The next time it was Henson applying the pressure. Karn made it 3,000 and Henson raised to 10,500, putting Karn at risk if he called. Karn thought for a moment then mucked.

Horseshoe Council Bluffs Floor Supervisor Paul Tuel
Level 8
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Paul Tuel has worked in Council Bluffs for 20 years. He was never a poker dealer but ended up the poker room supervisor at the Horseshoe thanks to a fellow employee who needed a break.
Tuel was a craps dealer and one day someone in the poker room needed a break. Tuel volunteered but admitted he didn't know much about poker.
"I knew what beat what," he said, "but had to ask the dealers for help."
After several months of joining the break rotation in the poker room, Tuel made the switch and has been here ever since.
Poker in Council Bluffs has had quite a journey. They started with only a six-table room where the dealers had to move out of the box in order for players to take their seats. Thanks to the poker boom and Chris Moneymaker winning the main event the room grew and now the current room has 18 tables and is the home to two Run Good Poker Series stops a year.
