Jacob Rockets Ahead

Alex Jacob, during Day 1 play
Alex Jacob, during Day 1 play
Alex Jacob has just collected a nice pot after eliminating another opponent.

In a raised pot, we caught the action on the flop of {J-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Jacob was in the tank facing a 11,000 chip bet from his opponent. After several minutes of thought he announced he was all in, as his opponent shrugged, looked down at his remaining 12,000 chips and made a pot-committed call.

Jacob: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}
Opponent: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}

The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and river the {J-Spades} and Jacob takes it down to send his opponent to the cashier as he moves up to over 80,000 in chips.
