Jalba Eliminates Lanner
Level 26
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Eusebiu Jalba opened to 250,000 from the cutoff and Alexander Lanner moved all in from the small blind for 700,000. Jalba called with a covering stack to put Lanner at risk.
Alexander Lanner: A♥J♣
Eusebiu Jalba: K♥J♦
Lanner had his opponent pipped and was in great shape to double up. That all changed when the flop came K♦J♥6♠, giving Jalba two pair and leaving Lanner drawing to just three outs. Lanner failed to find an ace on the 8♥ turn or 3♥ river and was sent to the rail while Jalba took down a nice pot.
