Player Who Rarely Loses Sent to the Rail

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante

A player limped from under the gun and action folded to Ken Justin two seats over, who opened to 2,000. The remaining players got out out of the way and the under the gun player made the call to send the two heads-up to the flop.

On a flop of {8-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} the under the gun player moved all in for 7,500. Justin thought for some time before eventually making the call.

Under the Gun Player: {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Ken Justin: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Justin was way ahead, with his opponent having just two immediate outs. That did not stop the at risk player from telling the table he "rarely loses". This would turn out to be one of those rare occasions, however, after the {j-Spades} turn and {j-Hearts} river failed to improve him, sending a decently sized pot Justin's way.
