Touitou Shows Why Everybody Loves Jacks
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Steven Touitou opened the hijack to 4,000 before Eric Adelstein three-bet to 10,000 from the big blind. With the action back on Touitou, he announced all in as the covering stack for 112,000 effective. Adelstein had to make a decision for his tournament life, and after a minute's tank he slid his chips forward to call.
Eric Adelstein: 9♠9♦ 
Steven Touitou: J♥J♦
Adelstein was in rough shape with his dominated pair. Nothing changed on the A♥K♦4♠ flop as Adelstein was already out of his seat by the time the 10♣ turn was dealt. The 2♦ river could not save him as he hit the rail late on Day 2.
