Jim Sachindis Eliminates a Player

Still way behind the eight-ball, Jim Sachinidis found some relief by almost doubling up and eliminating a fellow short-stacked player.

With all the chips in the middle preflop, Sachinidis was in excellent shape holding {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades} to his opponent's {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}. There were some slight worries for Sachinidis on the turn, with the board reading {4-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, giving his opponent a flush draw. But the river blanked the {8-Spades}, sending his opponent to the rail.

Sachinidis still has a fair bit of work to do, sitting at 3,000 with the average stack at 6,850.
