Johnson Counterfeits Taylor To Double

Level 25 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Just seconds after Lawrence Blazer got lucky to double up, Jerry Johnson did the same thing against Jonathan Taylor. Taylor raised it up to 32,000, and Johnson open shoved for his last 260,000. It got back around to Taylor, and he made the call.

Taylor: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Johnson: {a-Hearts}{9-Spades}

"I folded the good ole ace-nine," Ashly Butler said before he saw Johnson's cards. The flop was dry for Johnson, coming down {j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. The {j-Hearts} on the turn gave Johnson extra outs, and when the {7-Hearts} came on the river, Taylor was counterfeited.

Johnson did not realize until after the hand was over that he had won, as he almost mucked his hand. However, he caught it at the last second, breathed a sigh of relief, and collected the pot.

That hand bumped Johnson up to 550,000, while Taylor fell to 1.02 million.
