Vandersmissen Tank Calls With Jacks

Level 1 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

After seeing a flop of {8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} Vladimir Kochelaevskiy bet 17,000 into Kevin Vandersmissen who was on the button. Vandersmissen called. The turn was the {A-Diamonds} and both players checked to see the {2-Spades} on the river.

On the river Kochelaevskiy put out a bet of 33,000 and Vandersmissen went into the tank. He thought for nearly three minutes before finally putting out the chips to make the call. Kochelaevskiy showed {K-Hearts}{8-Spades} for a pair of eights, but Vandersmissen was holding {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} for a better pair of jacks. Those jacks were good enough to scoop Vandersmissen the pot.
