PokerNews Bad Luck For Juanda?

That's what John Juanda was jokily implying when he lost a pot to Alex Roumeliotis. His tune changed the very next hand when he won a nice pot back off the very same Swede.

In the first hand, Juanda three-bet from the button after Roumeliotis opened from the cut-off. Roumeliotis called to see the flop where he check-called a 2,050 c-bet from Juanda. Both players checked the turn before Roumeliotis took the pot down with a bet on the river.

On to the next hand where both our heros, and one other, called an early position raise to 525 before Talal Shakerchi squeezed it up to 2,650 from the button. Only our two heros called to see the flop. Shakerchi continued for 4,600 and was check-called by Roumeliotis before Junada check-raised all in for 24,200. Both opponents begrudgingly folded.
