Weinhold and Jattin Trade Chips

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante

In a big hand, Farid Jattin took a significant mount of chips from Rich Weinhold when he had a full house over the straight of Weinhold on a board of {a-}{3-}{a-}{4-}{5-}. Weinhold had {a-}{2-} and Jattin had {3-}{3-}.

A few hands later Weinhold doubled through Jattin in a blind on blind situation when Jattin jammed out of the big bind and Weinhold called. Weinhold's {a-Spades}{10-Hearts} held against the {a-Clubs}{9-Spades} of Jattin and he took a lot of his chips back.
