Jacks for Diaz

Level 3

No-Limit Hold'em

Board - {7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Arturo Diaz led out for 2,000, and "Crazy" Marco Johnson called. The river was the {4-Clubs}, and Diaz checked to Johnson who tossed out 6,000. Diaz quickly called.

Johnson opened up {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a pair of nines, but Diaz tabled {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for a wired pair of jacks, and won the pot.
