Noland Doubles Through May
Level 13
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Jeff Noland pushed all in for 29,400 from the small blind.
"Well, I know I'm way behind," said big blind Jerry May. "But I'm getting tired of folding suited connectors."
He called with 
and had live cards against 
.
Seemingly unconcerned with the outcome, Noland returned to his dinner as the flop came 
. The 
turn left him needing help on the river, though he had plenty of outs, and his lack of worry proved correct as the 
river gave him a winning straight.
"I had live cards, I knew I did," May lamented.
