Jacks Survive Twice in a Row

Level 5 : Blinds 700/1,500, 1,500 ante

Yuksel Savsa was down to his last 18,000 when he moved all in from early position and was called by Sergey Bobrik to his immediate left.

Yuksel Savsa: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Sergey Bobrik: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Bobrik was looking for an ace to score the knockout but missed the {8-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Spades} board as Savsa doubled his short stack.

The next hand at this table, it was Basel Khabbazeh who was all in for 45,000 and up against Mustafa Ercan.

Basel Khabbazeh: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Mustafa Ercan: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Khabbazdeh was racing for his tournament life but fell far behind on the {5-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop as Ercan made top set. Khabbazeh was already standing up from his seat by the time the board ran out {7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, sending him to the exit.
