Juanda Losing Steam?
We know there have been quite a few John Juanda posts already - but he keeps getting involved in huge pots.
Here's another that did not go in Juanda's favor, for a change.
On a flop reading 

, Juanda led out from the small blind for 20,700. His lone opponent shoved all in from middle position for nearly 90,000 and Juanda quickly called.
Juanda: 
for top set.
Opponent: 
for a flopped straight.
Juanda was behind and would need the board to pair to make a full-house or quads if he were to win the pot.
The
turn and
river bricked for Juanda and he was knocked back down to 140,000.
