Taylor Does The Work
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
From under the gun, a short stack player announced "all in" and pushed his 875,000 chips. Everybody folded to John Taylor on the button, who shoved, causing the blinds to fold.
Under the gun player: A♠K♠
John Taylor: A♦J♦
An ace on the flop 4♦A♥8♥ kept the short stack in the lead. But the J♠ changed everything as Taylor hit a pair of jacks. The 6♠ on the river confirmed Taylor's win and eliminated the other player from the tournament.
