Juanda Runs Into Set

We caught up to the action to see John Juanda and another player heads up in a pot of about 10,000 chips.

With the flop reading {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{J-Clubs}, Juanda fired out a bet of 6,800 only to have his opponent raise to 16,000. Juanda called and the turn was the {3-Diamonds}.

Juanda decided to check to the raiser and his opponent fired 21,000 into the center of the table. After about a minute, Juanda threw out a call. Fifth street was the {Q-Diamonds} and the action went check-check.

Juanda's opponent showed {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Juanda flung his cards to the muck. The five-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner is now sitting on about 143,000.
