Jacks Kind To Jesse

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Jay Jesse shoved all in from early position for 355,000 and action folded around to Wendy Freedman, who was in the big blind. She slid forward a stack of chips to call.

Jay Jesse: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Wendy Freedman: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

Jesse found himself with his back to the wall at risk for his tournament life. The flop came {8-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Spades} to give him an open-ended straight draw, though it only gave him four more outs. One of those four new outs came on the turn {7-Spades} to give him a straight, needing to dodge the last two jacks in the deck that would give Freedman a higher straight. The river fell {k-Spades} and he secured the double.
