Knockout for "jeroh07"

tayke2

Level 19 (3,000/6,000/750)

Under the gun, Matt "5u1ly" Sullivan raised to 65,000, leaving himself less than a big blind behind. It folded around to "jeroh07", who moved all in over the top. Sullivan called his final 3,000 off with pocket eights, but was well behind the {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} of "jeroh07". The flop of {5-Spades}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} changed nothing, and a queen on the turn gave "jeroh07" an unbeatable full house.
