The Oracle Out

In a hand involving Ted Forrest, Roy "the Oracle" Winston, and Jan Von Halle, Winston pushed all in preflop with his last 2,725 chips, Von Halle called, and Forrest folded.

The board ran out 4-3-4-K-K, Winston showed {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}, and Von Halle showed A-A to knock out Winston. "Gah!" cried Forrest, when the hands were shown, seemingly indicating what might have been.
