Juanda Hits The Rail

Level 5 : 100/200, 0 ante

From the button, John Juanda raised to 400 and was called by both the small and big blind. The flop came {3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} and the player in the small blind checked. The player in the big blind fired out a bet and Juanda instantly raised, dropping the rest of his stack in the middle. The small blind mucked his cards and the player in the big blind made the call.

Juanda: {9-Spades}{10-Spades}{K-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Opponent: {7-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

The turn came the {8-Spades} and the river the {5-Diamonds}, allowing Juanda's opponent to hit a straight and sending Juanda to the rail a little more than two hours after he was officially awarded his bracelet from Event #16. Even as he walked away from the table, Juanda was still wearing a giant smile, this year already proving to be a major success.
