Junior Merafuentes

Junior Merafuentes has been open-shoving his shortening stack about once or twice per orbit to try and stay afloat here. He had 35,100 the last time he shoved, and it would be... well, the last time he'd shove. The player in the small blind called, and Merafuentes exposed his hand. There was action pending, however, as big blind Tony Bracy was contemplating his play. Bracy stood from his chair and talked it out for a while. Merafuentes asked if he'd seen his cards flash, and Bracy insisted he didn't. "I'm such an idiot!" he called himself out. "But you're not the one I'm really worried about." Eventually, Bracy open-mucked his pocket jacks, and he'd soon see it was a good fold.

Showdown
Merafuentes: {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts}
Small blind: {A-Clubs} {A-Spades}

The {2-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} flop drew a chorus of "Oooooh"s from the table, but that's as close as Merafuentes would get. The turn {K-Clubs} and river {3-Spades} filled out a useless board as far as he was concerned, and his day is done.
