Janiga Binks a Jack to Survive Against Richards

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Sergio Rejas opened to 3,000 from late position, Connor Richards three-bet shoved for about 40,000 and Brett Janiga called all in with the shorter stack. Rejas let it go.

Brett Janiga: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Connor Richards: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

Richards held the better pair but that changed on the {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop. The turn {8-Hearts} and river {k-Spades} were no help to Richards as Janiga made jacks full to double up.
