Nikitin Puts Jacobson in the Blender
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
The under-the-gun player limped in before Anatoly Nikitin raised to 15,000 from middle position. Martin Jacobson called from the hijack and the limper also called.
Nikitin continued for 20,000 on the 8♦2♥2♣ flop and only Jacobson called. Nikitin then check-raised to 75,000 after Jacobson bet 25,000 on the 6♦ turn. The 2014 WSOP Main Event champion called.
Nikitin then jammed as the big stack on the 7♠ river which put Jacobson into the tank. He had around 150,000 behind and thought over the spot for some time.
Jacobson ended up conceding the pot and Nikitin crossed the 500,000 mark.
