Spilkin Lays the Smackdown on Sach

The money was all in on the turn with the board reading {a-?}{9-?}{j-?}{9-?} between Michael Spilkin and Jim Sachinidis and we got there to see the showdown:

Spilkin: {a-?}{9-?}
Sachinidis: {j-?}{9-?}

The river bricked, giving the pot to Spilkin and sending Sachinidis into a verbal tirade. It was reported that he was still steaming as he got moved to a new table and was warned by the floor staff to cool down.

Sachinidis is mortally wounded with only 3,800 in chips left, while Spilkin moves up to 31,000.
