That trips hand versus Andrew really vaulted me into the chip lead, and then Paul went on a hot streak, and the Jack’s hand was basically everything. If I don’t turn the Jack, it’s going to work, so you can’t fault him. I just played aggressively. I got to a place where I could raise and take it more, and everyone else just had to fold.”
