Banerji Busts One

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

From under the gun, a short stack pushed for his last 16,700 and the action folded to Shantanu Banerji in the hijack. He asked for a count and called, all other opponents folded.

"Jacks," the short stack announced and Banerji turned over {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} to see {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} appear on the other side of the table. Despite being ahead, the short stack seemed to know his fate and said "I need some luck" only for the flop to fall {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. The {5-Diamonds} turn and {10-Clubs} river were blanks and Banerji added some more to his stack.
