You can't beat Novak Djokovic in a tennis match. You can't outbox Floyd Mayweather. And no matter how many times you try, if you and Usain Bolt take off sprinting at the same time and stop at 100 meters, he's always going to get there first.
But one of the great beauties of poker, and something that undoubtedly contributes greatly to its magnetism, is that if the cards break right, you could beat one of the best players on earth in a heads-up match. James Woods did just that, triumphing over Doug Polk to win his second-round table on Day 2 of Event #4: $3,000 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout.
