A Sweet Jack for Higgins

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

The action folded to Canadian pro Pascal Lefrancois who moved all in from the button for right around 30,000 chips, according to Simon Higgins, and Olivier Weis moved all in from the small blind on top of that. Weis has Higgins, in the big blind, covered by a wide margin and the Brit called all in for his tournament life.

Higgins: {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}
LeFrancois: {Q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Weis: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

The flop brought {4-Hearts}{6-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and Weis took the lead on his way to perhaps a double elimination. On the turn the {4-Spades} hit and Weis maintained in the lead, but the river was the {J-Diamonds} to give Higgins both a double up and a knock out, as LeFrancois hit the rail.

"Always the jack on the river, it's so sick," Weis sighed, as he was left with 135,000 chips.
