Dhingra Gets Whacked; Ajez Cheers Anyways

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Action folded around to the small blind where Gautam Dhingra limped in. The player in the big blind then moved all in and Dhingra called.

Gautam Dhingra: {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}
Big Blind: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}

The board ran out {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{A-Clubs}{J-Hearts} and Najeem Ajez let out a cheer for Dhingra, thinking that the jack on the river was good enough to earn his friend the pot, but it wasn't as the player in the big blind hit an ace on the turn. This prompted some laughs from the table as well as a smile from Dhingra who took the beat in stride.

"Make sure you put that in the blog," James Hopkins said laughing. "Make sure you say that Najeem cheered for Gautam thinking he won."

After the hand, Dhingra was left with just over 10,000 chips.
