Jaka's Night Falls Short of a Bag

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Faraz Jaka
Faraz Jaka

There was around 30,000 in the middle from preflop action in a pot between Sergio Sanchez in the hijack and Faraz Jaka, who was on the button. The flop read {8-Spades}{2-Hearts}{10-Spades} and Sanchez checked to Jaka, who bet 20,000. Sanchez check-shoved to put Jaka all in and Jaka wasted no time calling.

Faraz Jaka: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Sergio Sanchez: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The turn came {2-Diamonds} to leave just one card between Jaka and a double, but one of the five cards in the deck that could end his night fell on the river {a-Diamonds} and he was eliminated from the tournament with less than 20 minutes of play remaining in the evening.
