Jeschka Barely Stays Alive
Level 17
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
It took a couple of preflop raises for all the chips to go in the middle and this was a big one with all things considered. Hannes Jeschka found himself at risk for 1,845,000 in the hijack and was up against one of the big stacks in Eric Yanovsky in the small blind.
Hannes Jeschka: A♣Q♣
Eric Yanovsky: K♣7♣
The flop came K♥10♦7♠ and Yanovsky spiked two pair to take a big lead. The A♠ on the turn gave Jeschka some more outs and it was the J♦ on the river that made his straight to stay alive.
