"Is That How You Win Tournaments?"

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

James Cooper's tournament has ended and in cruel circumstances too.

Cooper got his stack into the middle as an 82% favorite with his {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades} crushing the {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} of Adam Sanders. Cooper's kings kept in front as the {q-Hearts}{4-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop came into view but they were left desperately needing a third king when the {8-Spades} became the turn card. The {Q-Spades} river failed to alter anything and Cooper and his shiny L.A. Lakers hat exited the tournament area.

"Is that how you win tournaments?" asked Sanders to Shannon Shorr.

Yes sir, we think it is.
