Esterling Stays Alive
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Action was picked up on the turn, with Jeffrey Esterling all in for 14,000 and Rudolf George putting him at risk. The board was showing K♣J♦4♠3♦.
Jeffrey Esterling: J♠J♣
Rudolf George: A♦7♦
Esterling flopped a set of jacks but would have to fade a diamond to stay in the tournament. But the river was the 8♠ and the set of jacks by Esterling were still best, and he secured the double up.
