El Yousfi Finds a Lucky Jack
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Bogdan Vulcan raised to 40,000 under the gun and Mounir Tajiou called in the hijack. Said El Yousfi then moved all in for 190,000 in the small blind and Vulcan folded. "That's a very smart move from you," Tajiou said to Vulcan as he snap-called.
Said El Yousfi: J♣J♥ 
Mounir Tajiou: K♦K♣
Tajiou had woken up with kings to leave El Yousfi at risk of elimination, but El Yousfi caught a set on the J♦10♦8♥ flop. The rest of the board ran out 6♦6♥ and El Yousfi improved to a full house to secure the double up.
