So Close!

We thought we had our bubble boy. Over on Table 19, a short stack was all in with {A-Spades} {A-Hearts} and called by a player with {K-Spades} {J-Clubs}. Things were grim for the player with aces after a flop of {K-Clubs} {8-Spades} {J-Hearts} made two pair for his opponent. But the turn and river came running deuces, {2-Hearts} and {2-Spades}, to make a bigger two pair for the short-stacked and all-in player. When Jack Effel announced the action to the room, a smattering of boos went up.
