Christmas In July for Jaffee
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
On a heads-up turn board of 3♥9♦7♦2♦, Jared Jaffee and his short-stacked opponent got all the chips into the middle.
Opponent: 4♣5♠
Jared Jaffee: K♦8♦
While his opponent had an open-ended straight draw, he was already dead to Jaffee's made flush on the turn. The river came the meaningless K♥ and Jaffee was awarded the pot while his opponent headed to the exit.
"Tough spot for you there, huh Tuna?" Wise-cracking Jesse Lonis commented from across the table as Jaffee boosted his stack to 161,000.
