Hemphill's Jacks Get a Knockout
A raise to 1,200 came from early position, getting a call from middle position before the button reraised to 4,500, getting calls from George Hemphill in the small blind, as well as the players in early and middle position.
On the 
flop, action checked around to the button who fired for 6,000. Hemphill called before a shove of 21,100 came from early position. The middle position player and button got out of the way, before Hemphill put in the call with his opponent covered.
Opponent: 
George Hemphill: 
Hemphill was ahead with his jacks, and the 
runout offered no help to his opponent, who was sent to the rail. As Hemphill stacked his winnings, the button lamented his decision to fold, saying "I can't believe I folded chop suey," seeming to imply he held pocket jacks as well, "I thought you had a bigger pair."
