Liam Gannon

Level 17 : Blinds 8,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

After a player called in late position, Lindsay Jeffreson moved all in from the hijack for 46,000 after being interviewed by Erin Webster. Action folded back around to the player in late position who called.

Lindsay Jeffreson: A♣J♣ All in
Opponent: 6♦5♦

The board ran out A♥K♥7♣3♠7♠ and the ace-jack held up for Jeffreson to double, cementing what Webster referred to as "interview karma."

"Let this be a lesson guys," Webster joked as Jeffreson raked in the pot.
