{J-Clubs}

{J-Hearts}

, whilst Ristola could only muster {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{4-Hearts}

.

"Wow, you got some outs," observed an astute Juanda as the flop came {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{8-Hearts}

{5-Spades}

flop. The

{3-Diamonds}

turn is close but no cigar, and although the {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

offered the illusion of some sort of straight being out there, the knaves stood firm and Juanda earned his double through.
