Jorgne's Hopes For Another Run Come Down to a Classic Flip
Level 16
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Peter Jorgne raised to 10,000 in middle position and Barny Boatman called in the hijack. Eero Rantala three-bet to 35,000 on the button and Jorgne four-bet to 135,000. Boatman got out of the way, but Rantala moved all in and Jorgne called for 324,000.
Peter Jorgne: A♠K♣
Eero Rantala: Q♠Q♣
Cameras swarmed around the table as last year's runner-up needed to win this classic flip to stay alive. The flop came J♦3♦K♦ and he spiked a king to take the lead. The 6♦ turn was safe, while the A♣ river improved Jorgne to two pair and he doubled up.
