Jesus Allows No Bad Beats This Round

With it noted that Gavin Smith was 6 of 6 with the worst hand so far in this tournament, he moved on the short-stack preflop holding {K-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Chris "Jesus" Ferguson looked him up with {4-Spades}{4-Clubs} they were off to the races. The board ran out {A-Clubs}{3-Spades}{Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}{5-Hearts} leaving Gavin with king-high, snapping his streak and sending Jesus to the promised land of 16.
