"Leeeeeroyyyy... Oh, Wow"
Level 20
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Bill Perkins opened for 150,000 from the hijack and then called when Jason Koon moved all in for 550,000. Perkins tabled the 
and was racing against the 
of Koon.
The 
flop didn't do much for either player, but the 
turn did as it gave Perkins, who was clearly excited, the lead with a pair of aces. When the 
completed the board on the river, Perkins celebrated by loudly shouting the famous World of Warcraft line, "Leeeeeroyyyy Jenkins."
About that time the table pointed out that Koon had rivered a straight to win. "Oh, wow," Perkins said as he came crashing down from his high. "Unbelievable, I can't get anything going."
