Misaka Makes Hero Call to Double
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Tim Reilly raised to 250,000 in the hijack, and Juto Misaka defended in the big blind.
The flop came 10♦Q♥J♣, and Misaka check-called a bet of 130,000 from Reilly.
The turn landed the 5♠, and Misaka check-called again, this time for 350,000.
On the 3♦ river, Misaka checked once more, and Reilly bet enough to put Misaka all-in, who had 795,000 behind.
With his tournament life on the line, Misaka flicked in the call and tabled J♥9♣, for a pair of jacks. Reilly showed A♦9♥, for ace-high, and the pot was pushed Misaka's way.
