Giroux Keeps Climbing
An early position open was called by Paul Giroux in the cutoff. The small blind then moved his short stack all in, with only Giroux making the call.
Small Blind: J♠8♠ 
Paul Giroux: A♠Q♠
"All spades," said Giroux as he watched the 8♣Q♦K♥ flop give both players a pair.
The A♥ turn saw Giroux improve to two pair, notable as the J♠ river left the small blind with an inferior two pair.
