Here comes some more love for Theo.

He and Kai Paulsen got their chips in preflop, with Paulsen holding {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

, and Tran racing with {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

.

The flop brought the top pair Paulsen was looking for when it came {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{5-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

.

The turn card, however, was right in Mr. Tran's neighborhood. The {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

landed on the board, making Theo a full house, and drawing a big reaction from the table.

The river is a brick, {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

, and Kai Paulsen is sent off to collect his payout a bit earlier than he would have hoped.
