Higgins Flops a Jack
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Andre Akkari raised from the hijack to 25,000 and got a call from the cutoff. Simon Higgins was on the button and three-bet to 95,000, which only Akkari called.
On the 7♥5♠J♦ flop, Akkari check-called a bet of 65,000 from Higgins.
The action was then checked to showdown on the 5♥ turn and 3♣ river. Akkari flipped A♦K♦ for ace-high, but Higgins had flopped a pair of jacks with Q♦J♥ to take the pot.
