John Richards Eliminates Joseph Kohls

Level 20 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

With about 6,000 already in the middle and the board reading {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{5-Spades}, Joseph Kohls checked from the big blind to his lone opponent, John Richards on the button. Richards bet 2,500, Kohl check-raised to 8,000, and Richards called.

The turn brought the {A-Hearts} and Kohls moved all in for his last 10,000 chips. Richards called and the two players tabled their hands.

Kohls: {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Richards: {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

Richards had a commanding lead with trip jacks, and Kohls needed an ace on the river to double up. The {5-Clubs} changed nothing and Kohls was eliminated.
