On the turn the board read A♠9♦7♦8♦ and John Myung (middle) was all-in for 12,450 against the player on the button. When they rolled over their hands, John's A♦K♥ (top/top with nut flush draw) was trailing his opponent's A♥7♥ (two pair) but John had a lot of outs. Any diamond, King, 9, or 8 would give him a winner.
The river delivered the 9♣ which gave both players two pair, Aces and nines, but John's King kicker played. He doubled up and is now sitting behind about 45k in chips. That's pretty good since he was down to only 1,800 in the second level today.
