Up, Down, Back Up For Jaka

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

We reported very early in the day that Faraz Jaka had doubled up with quad sixes. Well since then, Jaka's stack was sliding, to the point that he was back below his starting stack at 4,000. But he has just found a double up, as Jaka got the last of his chips in preflop against an opponent, with Jaka in a dominating lead.

Jaka: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Opponent: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, and Jaka doubled back up to 8,000. Given how his day is going, we don't think that Jaka will stay at 8,000 for long.
