Jeffreys Drops Below 4K

Andrew Jeffreys has just lost a monster pot that left him with 3,700 in chips. The hand began with an 800 preflop raise from Jeffreys which was called by both Brett Chalhoub and Gary Cleaver.

The flop came {Q-Hearts} {5-Spades} {10-Diamonds} and the action checked around to Jeffreys, who made a continuation bet of 1,800. Chalhoub made the call and Cleaver folded, sending the action heads up to fourth street: {9-Hearts}.

Chalhoub checked, Jeffreys bet 6,000 and Chalhoub check-raised all in for a total of 10,400. Jeffreys made the call and tabled {Q-Diamonds} {10-Spades}; Chalhoub had him dominated with a pocket pair of tens for a set.

The river brought the {5-Hearts} improving Chalhoub to an overkill boat and Jeffreys was left with 3,700 in chips afterward.
