Level 19

The action folded around to Brendon Rubie and he raised to 25,000. From one seat over in the cutoff, Brian Payne announced all in and all other opponents folded. Rubie asked the dealer for a count and once it had been determined to be 159,000 in total, he took a sip from his coffee.
Half a minute later, Rubie made the call and found himself behind with the worse kicker:
Payne: 
Rubie: 
The 
in the window was bad news for Payne and he failed to regain the lead after the board ran out 
to bust the Aussie in 8th place for A$14,645.
