Jacks Good for Harris

Catching the action on the {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop, we found Mika Paasonen checking over to Walter Harris who opted to fire out a bet of 5,800.

Paasonen responded by making it 29,000 only to have Harris move all in for his 43,700 total. Paasonen made the call and the cards were tabled.

Paasonen: {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Harris: {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}

With Harris in great shape to double, the {3-Hearts} and {A-Spades} on the turn and river would see Harris' jacks hold as he moves over the 100,000-chip mark while Paasonen slips to just 30,000 in chips.
