Muehloecker Can't Beat Mulder's Jacks
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Sameh Elamawy opened from middle position to 8,000 and Teun Mulder three-bet the cutoff to 25,000. Thomas Muehloecker was in the big blind and ripped in his stack of around 150,000. Elamawy folded, and Mulder called.
Thomas Muehloecker: A♠J♠ 
Teun Mulder: J♦J♣
Muehloecker needed to find some spades or an ace, but didn't find much to work with on the 8♣5♣5♠ flop. A 2♣ on the turn left Muehloecker with just one shot at three outs, and he couldn't find any of them as the K♣ on the river cemented his elimination.
