Jaka Doesn't Got This

A player in early position raised to 2,300 only to have a short-stacked Faraz Jaka move all in for 7,200. The player in the cutoff then wok up with a four-bet to 12,000, which pushed the initial raiser out of the pot. "Don't worry, I got this," Jaka joked as he flipped his hand:

Showdown
Jaka: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}
Cutoff: {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

Jaka was in bad shape, and even more so when the case queen appeared on the {2-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop. The {A-Diamonds} turn kept Jaka alive and drawing to a river ace, but it was not meant to be as the {K-Hearts} peeled off. Jaka was eliminated here on Day 1a, but was quick to assure us that he would be back tomorrow.
