Juanda Jumps Over Outhred

We just came upon a hand involving John Juanda and Alex Outhred in which Juanda found himself at risk of elimination after being all in after the flop.

The pair were playing from the cutoff (Outhred) and button (Juanda), and had already built a pot when the flop came {4-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{K-Spades}. Outhred checked, Juanda fired a bet, Outhred check-raised enough to put Juanda all in, and Juanda called.

Outhred tabled {8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} for sixes while Juanda had picked up {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}. The pair then waited for the ESPN cameras to arrive, and Outhred joked self-deprecatingly about the hand not necessarily being a flattering one for him to have shown.

The table was still chuckling as the turn came the {2-Hearts} and river the {J-Spades}, and Juanda survived with a double up. "You're so lucky to get aces!" said Outhred, tongue obviously in cheek, and the table laughed again.
