Oh, Now That's Just Mean!

Brandon Adams and Paulo Rink just tangled up in a pot perfect for the TV cameras.

It was a preflop all in, and it was aces against kings. Adams had the {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} and Rink the {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts}, and a big crowd of media and players gathered around the table as they heard, "All in and a call, Table 284!"

The flop drew a big reaction from the assembled group as it came out {A-Spades} {K-Spades} {3-Diamonds} to give both players their set but leave Rink dead to the case king. The turn {3-Hearts} was most certainly not a king; The {K-Diamonds} on the river, however -- that was in fact a king, the last one in the deck and the only saving card for Rink. Quads beat aces full every day, and Rink has doubled up to 63,000.

On the flip side, that sick beat has left Adams with just 3,900 lonely chips.
