Kupin Finds a Miracle Against Pan

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Aaron Kupin and Qinghai Pan were heads-up on a board of 2♣5♥9♦J♠, each already with more than 200,000 in the pot. Kupin then got in his last 910,000 from the hijack, and Pan put him at risk in middle position.

Aaron Kupin: A♠K♣9♠7♠2♦ All in
Qinghai Pan: Q♦J♦4♥3♦2♥

Pan showed two pair, and Kupin was already standing up from his seat preparing to make his exit as he turned over A♠K♣9♠7♠2♦. The river, though, brought the K♣ to give Kupin kings and nines and the double.

"Wow, what a card. I've never hit a card like that in my life," Mike Matusow said.
