Jacob Chips Up

Alex Jacob

A semi short-stacked Alex Jacob raised to 1,075 under-the-gun and the big blind called. The two saw a flop of {a-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. After the flop checked around, Jacob called a 2,000 bet on a {10-Spades} turn, and another 2,000 after the river brought the {7-Clubs}. Jacob flipped up {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and his opponent sheepishly turned up {5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a busted straight draw.

Jacob can breathe a little easier as his stack now sits at 13,500.
