Forget Healing the Blind

Jorge Jesus moved all in blind for his last 58,500 from the cutoff and Will "The Thrill" Failla tank-called out of the small blind.

Showdown
Jesus: {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Failla: {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

It was the perfect scenario for Jesus, and the {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop gave him four extra outs to a straight. Sure enough the {10-Spades} turned giving him that straight, and after the {q-Diamonds} bricked on the river Jesus doubled to 128,000 chips.

Failla, who started the day as one of chip leaders, is now in trouble with just 70,000 chips.
