Default US Poker Championship Hand... ESPN goof?

don't remember who's in the hand, but one player had KK, another had K9d

the flop came down Kh 8d 2h, both players get all in. after the flop, ESPN said player w/ K9d had 0% of winning the hand, did they forget about runner runner diamonds?

anyone else notice this or was i just really high?

I noticed it and they were incorrect. Not only did the percentage say zero but both of the commentators were discussing him getting all of his money in drawing dead. I too thought that I was misreading the hand because they were so sure of it.

I'd assume they said that since they knew the result of the hand.

There were a few big goofs in their USPC coverage.
