Kicked in the Family Jewell

We saw that two-time WSOP Circuit Main Event champ Kurt Jewell was down to just 32,000, and he was kind enough to give us a few details. According to him, he had {K-}{K-} and was up against Greg Whittington.

There was some raising preflop, and then on the {4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop, a raising way broke out that saw Whittington shove in his big stack. Jewell called and discovered the bad news... Whittington held {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for the flopped buts. Jewell was unable to catch anything and watched a pot of more than 100,000 shipped to Whittington.
