Kapeller's Aggression Falls Short Against Eskes' Two Pair
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Siegfried Kapeller kicked off the action with a raise to 100,000, picking up calls from both blinds.
On the 8♠6♣J♦ flop, the blinds checked to Kapeller, who continued for 100,000. Tjenno Eskes in the small blind was the only one to stick around.
The 3♣ turn saw another check from Eskes, prompting Kapeller to fire a bigger bet of 370,000. Eskes quickly called.
When the 3♥ river arrived, both players checked, and the hand went to showdown. Eskes tabled Q♣J♣ for two pair, jacks and threes, which was enough to take it down as Kapeller sent his cards into the muck.
