Jaka Saved By the River

Tyler Boyer

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Faraz Jaka raised all in for 6,000 from under the gun, and when it folded to the button Joshua Timler, he made the call. Both of the blinds folded leaving the two players heads up, with Jaka at risk.

Faraz Jaka: A♦4♥ All in
Joshua Timler: 3♦3♣

Timler was ahead with his pocket threes, but Jaka did have two over cards. After the flop came 3♥J♥7♥ it improved Timler to a set but it gave Jaka a flush draw as well. The 6♦ on the turn also gave Jaka additional outs with a straight draw. That straight draw came right in on the river when the 5♠ hit the felt, to improve Jaka to a seven high straight, and secure the double up.

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Picking up the action partway through the hand Troy Mclean from early position was all in and at risk for his stack of 105,000 against Yuta Sugaya from under the gun.

Troy Mclean: K♦K♥ All in
Yuta Sugaya: A♥Q♣

Mclean was already in a good position to get the double and only improved on the 9♥2♥K♣ flop. The 5♥ turn did give Sugaya a flush draw but the river bricked out 6♦ to ship the pot over to Mclean.
