With the board showing KhQsJd2h on the turn, Peter Muhlbek checked from the small blind, Claudel Joseph moved all in from middle position, and Muhlbek called all in for about 800,000 with KsQh for top two pair.

But Joseph turned over JsJc for a set of jacks, and Muhlbek needed to catch a king or a queen on the river to stay alive.

The river card was the 10c, and Joseph won the pot with his set of jacks to eliminate Muhlbek in 39th place.
