Sexton Squeezes

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

There was an under-the-gun raise to 250 and two callers when Mike Sexton raised it up from the small blind to 1,000. The original raiser was the only caller and they got it heads up.

The flop came down {a-Spades}{5-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}. Both players checked. The turn was the {k-Clubs} and again it was checked. When the river fell the {8-Diamonds} Sexton checked one last time and his opponent did as well, saying “Jacks” as he did while turning over {j-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}.

“That’s what I was afraid you had” Sexton said while showing his {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.
