Hirs Goes on a Wild West Adventure, Soika Benefits

Aliaksandr Hirs had 10,000 chips in front of him from the big blind and Ihar Soika had made it 22,500 from the hijack. With the action back on Hirs, he decided to shove for around 95,000, which made Soika ask for a count. After getting the figure, Soika elected to call.

Ihar Soika: J♥J♦ All in
Aliaksandr Hirs: J♣5♣

Hirs had gone on a Wild West adventure with jack-five and ran into the worst hand he could possibly see as Soika had pocket jacks. A flop of 10♥3♥2♣ didn't offer much help to Hirs, but the A♣ turn opened up a world of opportunity as he picked up both flush and straight draws.

However, Hirs couldn't connect with the river as the 2♠ filled out the board, which sent his stack down to around 5,000, while Soika doubled up to 190,000.
