Tables Turning for Turner?

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Jon "PearlJammer" Turner's big stack is starting to whither away.

When we caught up with the action, the board read {A-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}(X){2-Hearts} and Turner's lone opponent checked to him from the hijack. The online phenom known as "PearlJammer" fired a 18,300 bet, sending his opponent into the tank.

Eventually, Turner's opponent made the call and revealed {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} for a gutsy call on the ace-high baord as Turner mucked his hand, conceding the pot. His stack has slid to just over 100,000.
