Sluzinski Plays to Win but Gets Unlucky

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Bahar Moussa shoved all-in on the button and Jeff 'Boski' Sluzinski went deep into the tank in the big blind.

"I have a real hand," Sluzinski said, "I play to win. I'm not stalling to cash."

After about two minutes, he made the call for his stack of 150,000, and both hands were tabled.

Bahar Moussa: K?2?
Jeff Sluzinski: Q?Q?

Sluzinski did indeed have a big hand, the third best starting hand in the deck but the flop of K?7?5? paired Moussa's king to take the lead. The 8? turn and 2? river were no help for Sluzinski, improving Moussa to two pair.
