Good Theo-ry

Theo Jorgensen

Theo Jorgensen min-raises to 2,400. Andy Bloch and Markus Golser make the call before Ville Haavisto reraises the pot from the small blind to 22,200. Jorgensen thinks for a bit before pushing all in for around 43,900 total. Andy Bloch folds and Golser calls the all-in. Haavisto with only a few thousand left also calls all in.

Haavisto: {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}
Jorgensen: {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}
Golser: {A-Spades} {A-Hearts} {J-Spades} {6-Spades}

On seeing Golser also has aces, Jorgensen declares, "Suddenly I like my hand a bit more!" Andy Bloch says that he passed {8-?} {7-?} {6-?} {5-?}.

The board runs out {5-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} and Jorgensen's flush wins him a 110,000 pot. Haavisto is out, and Golser is crippled.

Jorgensen: "It's better to be lucky than good!"
