Bad Turn, Good River for Ephremsen

Paul Ephremensen and his opponent were all in preflop.

Ephremesen: {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
Opponent: {Q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

A flop of {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{4-Hearts} was good for both players, but the {10-Diamonds} on the turn was a bad card for Ephremsen. It didn't matter though, as the {K-Diamonds} fell on the river, pairing the board and giving Ephremsem a full house.

He now has a solid stack worth 14,000.
