Jan Sorensen Counterfeited Twice

Jan Sorensen is short-stacked and all in with {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} against another player's {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}. Sorensen is a big favorite to double up, but the board comes {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{8-Spades} -- putting a ten-high straight on the board for a chopped pot.

One time is bad enough, but that's the second time today that Sorensen's better hand has been counterfeited by a straight on the board. It's even more frustrating that he's been treading water most of the day with a short stack of chips.
