Five Alive

Aussie Alan Jeffries, who excited our Australian field reporter with his mere presence, has just suffered a hit to his once 47,000 stack in rather unfortunate circumstances.

With his opponent open shoving under-the-gun with {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, Jeffries called one seat down with {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}, but was defeated by a set -- which improved further to a full house -- on an ensuing {5-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{J-Clubs} board.
