Valdez Holds Hands with Lady Luck on the Turn

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

The flop was showing {2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Spades}, Chad Deberry checked to David Valdez who moved all in for 7,900 into a pot around 4,500, and Deberry snap-called.

Deberry tabled {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} for a pair of jacks and Valdez showed {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for a smaller pair. He would need a nine. The turn came down a very fortuitous card for Valdez as the {9-Hearts} hit the felt, giving him a set of nines.

The river changed nothing as the {7-Hearts} hit the table and Valdez would take down the pot, leaving Deberry with just one big blind and he would win a few all-ins to move almost back to starting stack.
