Brutal Turn for Drake

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Sean Drake moved all in preflop and was called by Naga Kakumanu to put his tournament life at risk.

Sean Drake: J?J?
Naga Kakumanu: A?K?

Drake was ahead on the flop of Q?9?10?, but the turn J? was brutal as it gave him a set but it also gave Kakumanu the nut straight. The river3? failed to pair the board and Drake was sent to the payout desk as Kakumanu raked in the pot.
