John Juanda Eliminated

Gunned down just before the break, John Juanda raised to 300 preflop before betting out 475 on the {6-Spades}{2-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop. His opponent made it 1,500, Juanda pushed for 2,300 total and was duly called.

With tens versus jacks, Juanda was in big trouble, and it only got worse, the jack on the turn leaving him drawing dead.
