Patience Pays for Jafari

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Cord Garcia min-raised to 1,200, a player on his left mis-clicked, three-betting to a very high amount because he got the chip denominations confused, and Jeff Jafari moved all in for 9,300. Garcia folded, the player called, and the hands were tabled.

Three-Bettor: {q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Jafari: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

The kings held when the board rolled out {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, and Jafari more than doubled to 21,000 chips.

"Jesus!" he yelled to his friend Jesus Cabrera after the hand. "Patience pays!"
