Baek and Call on the Bubble
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
With the bubble fast approaching, Alexander Baek moved all-in on the button. James Jewell, the chip leader at the table, quickly shoved as well from the small blind.
Alexander Baek: J♥J♣
James Jewell: K♥K♦
When Jewell tabled the kings, Baek hurriedly put his backpack on, and was about to head north to the exit.
Baek, who made a nice run in the $3,000 six-handed NLH event, finishing 12th in a field of 1,150, thought his tournament was over.
Then came the cards. A runout of 4♠10♠Q♠J♠8♦ hit his with the set on the turn and Baek had to sit back down.
