Are You the Gatekeeper?

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

One player shoved all in from the under the gun, putting his last 75,000 at risk, and the action folded around to James Boyle.

The self-proclaimed "lighthouse keeper at the WSOP" casually flicked out three of the red T25000 tournament chips to make the call, putting his short-stacked opponent at risk with {A-Hearts}{j-Spades}.

"This is my favorite hand..." said the all-in player as he tabled {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}.

Unfortunately for him the board didn't play favorites and the final runout came {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades}{a-Diamonds}, leaving him with an outkicked top pair and shipping the small pot to Boyle.
