Jacob Stone
Jacob Stone

Jacob Stone limped the small blind and Fintan Hand checked his option.

The dealer spread a flop of Q86, and Stone check-called a bet of 300,000 from Hand.

When the 7 hit the turn, Stone check-raised a bet of 525,000 to 1,600,000 and Hand made the call.

The 2 completed the board on the river and Stone announced a bet of 4,500,000 as he grabbed two stacks and crossed the line with them. Hand sighed as he leaned back in his chair and muttered a few words.

After a few moments, Hand dropped a chip across the line to make the call. Stone rolled his K5 for a flush, and Hand flashed his straight as his 54 went face up.

Maria Konnikova: A3 All in
Fabrice Maltez: AJ

Konnikova was dominated and the AK6 gave both players a pair of aces. The 3 fell on the turn to give Konnikova two pair to almost surely double up but the J landed on the river to give Maltez aces and jacks.
