Michael Pesek Gets Knocked Out

Michael Pesek got his chips in the middle with the best hand but still lost the hand.

Pesek raised to 65,000 from under-the-gun and got re-raised to 167,000 by Travis Johnson on the button. Pesek shoved over the top for an additional 330,000 and Johnson tanked before finally making the call with {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}, which was behind Pesek's {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}.

Johnson didn't take long to catch up though, hitting a set on a flop of {J-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. The turn and river brought the {3-Hearts} and {A-Hearts} - no help to Pesek - who went home in 12th spot.
