Hand #245: Jake Balsiger

Level 39 : 500,000/1,000,000, 150,000 ante

Jake Balsiger started the hand with the button, and he raised to two million. Jesse Sylvia defended his big blind, and the flop fell {3-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{4-Spades}. Sylvia led out for 2.25 million, and Balsiger called.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds}, and Sylvia slowed down, checking to Balsiger who fired 3.5 million. Sylvia released, and Balsiger picked up the pot.
