Massey Can't Fade; Busts

[user101598]

Moments ago, Peter Jankowski started shouted wildly at the feature table. When we headed over to the table, we saw the dealer muck ace-king. The board was , and Jankowski had sitting in front of him.

The unlucky victim was Aaron Massey.

"I had ace-king," he confirmed, as he stood up from the table. "All in on the flop."

After celebrating, Jankowski apologized to Massey, saying what he did was out of line. Jankowski now has around 775,000 chips.

A Double on the Bubble

[user101598]

On the feature table, Patrick Chan moved all in for 133,000 on the button. Peter Jankowski made the call in the big blind, and the hands were opened.

Chan:
Jankowski:

The floor made no attempt to stop the players from sweating the hand, and nearly the entire field encircled around the table as the flop fell . Thinking that Jankowski was the short stack (he was only second in chips to start the hand) the players began to cheer.

The turn and river came , respectively, and Chan doubled.

Just as players started to send off "in the money" texts and tweets (Justin Schwartz actually lost his iPhone in the process), they realized that they had slowrolled themselves.

Chan is up to 275,000 chips, while Jankowski dropped to 610,000.
