Taylor Doubles Through Jacobson

In the last hand of Level 23, Steven Bradbury raised to 109,000 from early position, and both Jonas Klausen (hijack) and Martin Jacobson (button) called. James Taylor then pushed all in from the small blind for an additional 335,000, and the action was on Bradbury.

Bradbury didn't take too long to fold. Klausen took a little longer, then let it go as well. Jacobson looked down at his chips for about thirty seconds, then decided to make the call.

Taylor {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Jacobson {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The flop came {4-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}, and Jacobson was still ahead. The turn was the {J-Diamonds}, and now a diamond could save Taylor as well.

The dealer burned a card and dealt the river -- the {2-Diamonds}. Taylor had made his flush, doubling to nearly 700,000. Jacobson is now at 880,000.
