The Ups and Downs for Jeff Sluzinski

Jeff Sluzinski

Jeff Sluzinski found himself all in holding :::Th:::Td against an opponent’s :::Ax:::Kx for roughly his last 28,000.

The dealer spread a :::Tc:::Ts:::2h:::Qd:::6s board to see Sluzinski flop quads to double to roughly 60,000.

Sluzinski then explained to us that he played roughly a 100,000-chip pot with :::Ax:::Kx against :::Ax:::Ax to be left in that spot to double with his two tens.

The very next hand, a player open-shoved his last 11,500 and Sluzinski called from late position.

Sluzinski: :::8h:::8c
Opponent: :::2s:::2h

It was another great spot for Sluzinski, but when the dealer dropped the :::As:::3s:::5d flop, it gave his opponents outs to a straight to go along with his two additional deuces.

The turn of the :::Js now opened up backdoor flush outs, and when the dealer burned and turned the :::6s on the river, Sluzinski’s opponent found a lucky double as the local tournament regular took a dive down to roughly 48,000 in chips.
