Horrendous way to bust out.  No idea how the guy thinks his Jacks are good here...looks like he snap calls, but apparently he tanked for about 5 minutes before calling.

The other guy was pretty classy in not celebrating pretty much at all.

I was expecting him to sprout extra arms for adding fist pumpery but he just sat there, he almost looked embarrassed at having won.

I cant be bothered to figure it out, but I would estimate that pot has a $equity value of somewhere in  $2-$2.5m regoin (if nto slightly more)

There is no way to see the long run in this, so basically he got it in 80/20 and lost $2.5m

That is a really really fucking bad beat imo

This. So gutted for the guy. Seemed like a nice guy too, obviously only from wsop coverage though. Apparently came really come the previous year as well, but had a blow up.

What's more sick is the fact he ran good enough to finish 80th then 15th in back to back main events.Nice life.

This is very true. And the K high river BET-CALL vs Thorsen which is just the most bizarre hand

Yeah but it's poker, these things happen. Why shouldn't it happen in the ME, he got that deep two years in a row, he didn't run bad, losing one hand must suck but such is life when you play poker regularly.
