Paul Rubin is still near the top of the counts. It helps when you flop the best hand, then improve by turning the nts. In a limped three-way pot, Rubin was first aggressor on a flop of {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

. He opened for 5,500 and was quickly raised by the player to his left. Rubin called.

Both players checked the {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

turn and the {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

river. Rubin turned over {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{j-Hearts}

for the nuts, a Broadway straight. His opponent flashed {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

and then mucked.
