Faraz Jaka Can't Finish The Job
Level 6: 150-300, 50 ante
Last level, Faraz Jaka won a 100,000 pot against Hoyt Corkins, droping him down to just 4,300. Jaka would have loved if he had Corkins covered by that extra few thousand as Hoyt is one of the players with a $5,000 bounty on his head today.
Moments ago, Jaka had a chance collect that bounty, but couldn't win an all in pre flop race against the Alabama Cowboy. Corkins held A
10
against the pocket sevens of Jaka. The board came A
J

A

and Corkins mananged to stay alive, doubling up to almost 10,000.
