Jordan Slam-Dunked

It folded around to Jordan Morgan in the cutoff who raised. The button passed, but the David Arnold in the small blind now pushed for his whole 60,000 stack. The big blind folded, but Morgan, only just covered, snap-called all in with {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}, which presumably was not what Arnold had been hoping would happen. He turned over {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

Now concentrate! Here comes the outdraw bit.

Board: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

Oh dear. Morgan's two pair by the end of the board was no match for Arnold's luckbox straight, and he found himself eliminated. Arnold meanwhile all but doubled to 120,000.
