Francis Carandang got it all-in preflop in middle position for 159,000, against the player from under the gun, who had him covered.
Francis Carandang: J♠J♥
Under the gun: 5♥5♠
As the dealer brought out the J♦7♣5♣ flop, the five was in the window, giving Carandang a scare. The 9♣ turn and 7♣ river improved his hand to a full house, jacks full of sevens, which earned him the double up.
