Spurlin Halts Jozoff's Rise

Level 4 : Blinds 125/250, 25 ante

Michael "mikejozoff" Jozoff's strong start to the tournament just took a bit of a hit in a pot against Jordan "HFNeon" Spurlin.

Spurlin raised to 500 in middle position and Jozoff re-raised to 1,600. Spurlin called and they went heads-up to the {3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop.

Jozoff bet another 1,800 and Spurlin came back with a raise to 4,600. Jozoff called as the turn came the {6-Diamonds}.

Spurlin put out 3,500 this time and Jozoff once again called. The river was the {9-Spades} and Spurlin shoved for 16,400. Jozoff quickly mucked.
