Janette Zawecki, Welcome to Poker, Circa 2013

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

With the flop reading {4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{j-Hearts}, Janette Zawecki was faced with a bet of 6,600 from an unknown opponent. After thinking for only a few seconds, Zawecki moved all-in over the top for about 10,000 more holding {K-}{J-}.

Her opponent counted out the requisite calling chips and thought things through, before eventually rolling them into the pot and revealing {K-}{Q-} for no pair/no draw.

Zawecki was visibly surprised at having been called down so lightly, but the {10-Spades} on the turn gave her pause. With a backdoor straight draw now in play, she was at risk of being victimized by a senseless suckout, but the {7-Clubs} on the river could not harm her, and she earned a well deserved double.
