Gaerke Gets Sneaky with Jacks
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Michel Karim raised to 1,000 second to act and was called by Sergei Krementsukov, Jochen Gaerke and Neil Rogers from the hijack, cutoff and big blind.
Rogers led out for 3,000 on the 10♦9♥2♣ flop, folding out Karim and Krementsukov. Gaerke moved all in as the bigger stack and Rogers called off the 12,600 more he had behind.
Neil Rogers: A♦10♣
Jochen Gaerke: J♦J♥
"Two times in a row, red jacks," said Gaerke as his overpair had Rogers in bad shape. The J♣ turn improved Gaerke to a set to lock up the hand. Rogers and Gaerke exchanged a handshake as the 8♥ river completed the board and the Brit headed out of the tournament room.
