Vann Gets Unlucky

In the space of a few orbits, Alexander Dovzhenko has becoming the overwhelming chip leader. He recently raised a pot pre-flop from early position to 15,000. Donald Vann called in middle position and Michael Jacobs also came along from the big blind. Jacobs and Dovzhenko checked a flop of {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, inducing a bet of 45,000 from Vann. Jacobs folded to that bet, but Dovzhenko moved all in. Vann wasted no time in announcing a call.

Vann: {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Dovzhenko: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{2-Clubs}

Vann flopped two pair, nines and eights, and was up against Dovzhenko's nut low draw and straight draw. Neither of those draws filled, but Dovzhenko made a running two pair with the {j-Clubs} turn and {a-Hearts} river to make aces and jacks, better then Vann's jacks and nines. Vann rolled his wheelchair away from the table, collected his payout slip, and was off.

Dovzhenko now has 340,000 in chips.
