No Luck for "The Phoenix" in Phoenix
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
After losing a massive pot with jack-ten against pocket jacks on a flop of Jx10x6x, Will "The Phoenix" Givens was down to his final 17,000.
Following an open from the hijack, Will Givens jammed for 17,000 from the small blind, and his opponent called.
Will Givens: Q♥Q♦
Hijack: J♥J♦
Givens was in great shape to double with the overpair, and he even covered both of his opponent's suits.
However, the J♠9♠7♥ flop gave his opponent top set. Nothing changed on the K♦5♣ runout, and Givens was sent to the rail in brutal fashion.
"They just can't let me win here!" Givens lamented as he shared some sporting handshakes with the table on his way out.
