Lakerveld’s Nines Fold Under Cazacu’s Jack Attack!
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
PokerNews entered the scene just as the cards were being revealed. Daniël Lakerveld was all in and on risk, revealing his hand of 9♣9♠, while Adrian Cazacu confidently showed A♠J♠.
The flop was already a nail-biter for Lakerveld, coming down 2♥J♦J♣ and giving Cazacu trips with his three jacks. To make matters worse for Lakerveld, the J♥ hit on the turn, sealing the fate of his pocket nines and effectively rendering his hand dead. With no chance of recovery, Lakerveld was left with no choice but to pack his bags and exit the tournament.
