Habib Picks Up Jacks

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Hasan Habib was one of the short stacks entering Day 2 but just got lucky to received a much-needed double. It began when a player limped in middle position and Seat 2 raised to 4,200. Action folded to Habib on the button and he moved all in for 17,300. The limper got out of the way while Seat 2 made the call:

Seat 2: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Habib: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}

Habib was way behind but not after the {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop delivered him a set. The {K-Clubs} on the turn gave him a boat and all he needed to do was dodge a king or queen on the river. He did just that as the {3-Hearts} peeled off. Habib is still relatively short with 40,000.
