What Do You Think They Had?

Marc Podell raised to 24,000 from the cutoff, and Terry Lade called from the button. Scott Montgomery called from the small blind, and the big blind called as well.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{5-Spades}{8-Clubs}. The blinds checked, and Podell bet 60,000. Lade called, then Montgomery kicked it up to 240,000. The big blind and Podell each folded in turn, then Lade pushed all in. Montgomery decided to fold.

After the hand, Podell said he had pocket jacks. We'll never know what Lade or Montgomery had, although they gave us some interesting clues with which to guess.

Lade is now up to 1.3 million, and Montgomery down to 545,000.
