James Joyner Busts One
Sep 06, '13
James Joyner raised to 2,000 from under the gun and was called by the button before the small blind moved all in for his last 13,800.
Jesus Muniz then called the all in from the big blind, only to see Joyner move all in behind him. The button folded and Muniz went into the tank. Sitting with about 62,000 behind, most of his stack would be in jeopardy.
After a two minutes, Muniz folded what he later claimed were pocket jacks. Joyner showed JJ for the other two jacks and saw he was flipping against the small blind’s AK.
The board ran out 44335 and Joyner took the pot, increasing his stack to 91,000.

Miles Is Miles Ahead Of The Field
Sep 06, '13
A player moved all in from under the gun for his last 1,500 and was called by Jesus Muniz, T.K. Miles, the hijack and the big blind. The flop came down 872 and everyone checked to Miles, who bet 3,600.
The hijack was the only caller and the turn was the 6. Miles asked his opponent how much he hand behind and then checked. The hijack then moved all in for 28,375.
“That’s a big bet,” said Miles. After about 90 seconds in the tank, Miles made the call, tabling 87. His opponent revealed 99 for an overpair and a straight draw and the other all in player, who the dealer seemed to forget about, never turned over his cards.
The river was the 8 and Miles improved to a full house to eliminate his two opponents. He now has 138,000 in chips and is by far the biggest stack in the room.
