Fricke Loses Race

Jimmy Fricke has just lost another preflop race, this time holding the lead with pocket eights against the {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} of Hjalti Jacobsen.

The board ran out {6-Spades}{5-Hearts}{A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{K-Spades} to give Jacobsen two pair and leave Fricke with only 28,000 chips. Jacobsen doubles to 90,000.
