Jon "Pearljammer" Turner Doubles Up

A middle position player opened the pot for 3,600, Simon Sturtbray called, Jon "Pealjammer" Turner re-raised to 10,600 from the button, the MP player folded, and Sturtbray moved all in, sending Turner into the tank. With only 17,500 behind, Turner ultimately made the call.

Sturtbray {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Turner {Q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The flop was {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. Turner stood up and gathered his things, getting ready to leave... but the {9-Hearts} spiked on the turn.

"C'mon... deuce!" called Turner, praying for the river to blank.

The {3-Diamonds} fell and Turner sat back down to stack up his 65,000 in chips.
