Paul was in great shape for a double-up, holding top two pair along with a nut-flush draw. Schreiber had two pair, too, albeit dominated. He could hope only for a non-diamond jack to make a straight or a nine for a full house.
The was one of the deadly outs that Paul didn't want to see on the river, but he couldn't avoid it. "That was nasty," admitted Schreiber after the bad beat.
Players moved their chip stacks to the final table and then left the tournament room for a 15-minute break.
