David Salituro

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Michael Uguccioni raised to 100,000 under the gun, leaving himself just 15,000 behind, as Jean-Claude Perrot called in the big blind.

The flop came 6♣6♠3♣ and Perrot bet enough to put Uguccioni all in. Uguccioni stood up and looked around the room as he took a minute before committing his last chips.

Michael Uguccioni: Q♠J♣ All in
Jean-Claude Perrot: J♦J♥

"Those are my jacks," tablemate Adrian Teodoreanu said when Perrot turned over his cards. The board ran out 10♣5♦ and Uguccioni was sent to the rail.

"My jacks," Teodoreanu repeated.
