Jacks Help Alontsau Chip Up
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Siegfried Kapeller made it 120,000 from under the gun and Siarhei Alontsau three-bet to 300,000 in the cutoff. When it got back to Kapeller, he called.
On the 8♣5♥6♥ flop, Kapeller decided to lead out with a bet of 250,000, and Alontsau called.
A 6♦ on the turn saw another bet from Kapeller, this time for 300,000, and Alontsau called at lightning speed.
When the 8♦ filled out the board on the river, both players opted to check it down with Kapeller showing 7♥7♦, but Alontsau had the winner with J♣J♥.
