Morozumi Hits the Jack He Didn't Want

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was picked up with Naoya Morozumi all in, and Andy Garcia calling to put him at risk.

Naoya Morozumi: AK All in
Andy Garcia: JJ

It was a flip for Morozumi's tournament life, and he would need to improve against the pocket jacks of Garcia. The 106Q flop gave Morozumi additonal outs for Broadway, but the 6 turn took those outs away. Which was unfortunate because the river was the J to give Morozumi the Broadway straight, but improved Garcia to a full house, jacks full of sixes to take the pot and eliminate Morozumi.
