The Aces of Skryabin Get Cracked

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Walid Abdi Ali raised to 2,600 and Aleksandr Skryabin from one seat over three-bet to 8,600 in the hijack. Michal Lubas in the cutoff four-bet to 21,000 after some consideration and the players behind them including chip leader Johannes Wassmuth folded.

Ali folded as well, while Skryabin moved all in. Lubas only thought about it for a few moments and called all in for 74,000.

Michal Lubas: {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}
Aleksandr Skryabin: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}

On the {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{9-Clubs} flop, Ali said "I had king jack, it's a one outer." Neither the {3-Clubs} turn nor the {Q-Diamonds} river improved Lubas and he lost the vast majority of his stack.
