No More Miami

Miami John
Miami John
"Miami" John Cernuto called from middle position when a late position player decided to talk a bit of trash. After looking at his cards, the player looked at "Miami" John and said, "I think you've got 2-3" and moved his chips all in. John replied, "well if you think I have 2-3, then I'll take my chances" and made the call. John showed {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs} only to find himself up against {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}. Though John flopped an 8, the opponent's pocket jacks held up, shortstacking John who eventually busted out shortly thereafter.
