Jackson Starts to Bridge the Gap
Level 36
: 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
David Jackson opened to 625,000 from the button and Isaac Kempton three-bet to 2,500,000. Jackson called and the flop came down 
.
Kempton bet 1,500,000 and Jackson called to see the 
turn card. Both players checked to the 
river where Kempton tapped the table once more.
Jackson shoved his 5,900,000 stack into the middle and Kempton hit the tank but in the end, he let his hand go and Jackson scooped one of the first heads up pots of the tournament.
