Redden Hits Jack on River vs Leng

Level 23 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

In a preflop all in, Ryan Leng had the slight lead with {9-}{9-} vs the {k-}{j-} of John Redden.

The flop was dealt {8-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{5-Hearts}. The turn came the {q-Clubs} as Leng remained in the lead.

On the river, the dealer accidentally revealed the burn card, a jack, which would have given Redden the needed card to overcome Leng. The table cringed a bit at the needle to Redden but there was no time to be too upset because the river came another jack the {j-Clubs} to indeed pair Redden and knock Leng down to a very small stack.
