Jensen Nearly Walks Away
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Just before the break, the action folded to Rex Jensen on the button who ripped all in for his last 475,000. Karapet Galstyan was in the big blind and quickly called to put Jensen at risk.
Rex Jensen: A♥5♥
Karapet Galstyan: 8♥8♣
The flop came 8♠7♠6♥ and Galstyan flopped a set of eights to take a big lead. However, the 4♠ hit the turn and Jensen made a straight. The J♠ bricked out on the river and Jensen stood up to walk away from the table.
"You got a straight!" one player shouted.
"Oh!" Jensen realized as he retook his seat to a crucial double up.
