Brutal Beat for Baime
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
After a preflop betting war, Ken Baime and Grant Juric got all the money into the middle, with Juric at risk of elimination.
Grant Juric: 8♦8♣
Ken Baime: K♥K♦
Baime was in a prime position to burst the bubble with his superior pocket pair, but the flop of J♦J♥8♥ immediately gave Juric the lead with a flopped full house. Baime could still hit a jack or a king to win, but the runout of 2♦Q♥ did not do it and Juric scored a big double-up.
