Herstein Wins at Showdown
Level 2
: 100/200, 0 ante
More than 2,000 was already in the middle on a flop of 
with three-way action that saw a middle-position player bet 600. The hijack was next to act and called, putting action onto Gary Herstein, who was on the button. Herstein put in a raise to 2,000 and got a fold from the original bettor and a call from the hijack.
The turn came 
and the hijack checked. Herstein continued, firing another 3,000, and the hijack called again. Action then went check-check on the river 
to take the hand to showdown, and the two players verbalized their hands thereafter to some degree between one another, with the hijack mucking as Herstein showed only 
, good to earn him the pot with jacks up.
