After two limpers entered the pot in front of him, Jeff Madsen did the same from the cutoff, only to see Chris Park squeeze from the button with a raise to 525.

The limpers left the scene rather quickly and Madsen then took his time deliberating before cutting out a three-betting stack of 1,800.

Park wasted little time in shipping the rest of his stack forward, and Madsen essentially beat him to the pot with his call, putting his own stack at risk in the process.

Madsen: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Park: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

The two were flipping for all the marbles, and when the flop rained down {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs} Madsen took the lead with his pair of kings. The pro's expression remained stoic, however, as he knows better than most that fortunes can turn in a flash.

Turn: {9-Diamonds}

Madsen's flinched at the sight of a two-out disaster which left him drawing dead, before standing up to make his exit as the meaningless river card came the {8-Diamonds}.
