Paulsen Hits the Jackpot

Kai Paulsen raised to 6,000 under the gun, and Julian Powell called from the next seat over. It was just the two of them to the 
flop. Paulsen bet out 8,500, and Powell slowly made it 23,000. Kai doubled the bet, making it 66,000. No more playing around for Julian, who four-bet shoved. Paulsen snap called, showing that his 
had flopped a set. Powell was mighty unhappy just to be holding 
. "And I slow played it perfectly, too," he lamented. The turn brought the 
, giving Paulsen four to a flush and leaving Powell with one out. It didn't appear, and his tournament is done while Paulsen's is just beginning. He's taken over the chip lead with 420,000.
