Vanchiro Gets Jacked

[user66118]

Jeffrey Vanchiro opened the pot from early position, and the action passed around the table to the button. From that position, a relatively short-stacked player moved all in for another 64,300 on top. Vanchiro would go into the tank for a good soak as he counted out his own chips and thought it over carefully. Finally, he did indeed make the call with {9-Spades}

. His opponent didn't like the call, and he sheepishly turned over {J-Hearts}

.

Despite getting his money in way ahead, Vanchiro watched in horror as the dealer flopped his opponent another jack to make a higher pair. In the end, the board read {K-Clubs}
