$100,000 Super High Roller

Here Comes Jensen

Not long ago, Greg Jensen was nursing a short stack. Now, the investment banker has made a charge and is up above the chip average.

It happened when Daniel Negreanu opened for 42,000 under the gun, Vladimir Troyanovsky three-bet to 93,000 from the cutoff, and Jensen four-bet all in to 343,000 from the small blind. Negreanu got out of the way and Troyanovsky made the call.

Showdown
Troyanovsky: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Jensen: {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}

Jensen was dominated, but lucky for the amateur the {4-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop delivered him salvation. Neither the {9-Diamonds} turn nor {3-Hearts} river helped Troyanovsky, and he watched a good portion of his chips sent across the table.

A short time later, the same two players saw a flop of {9-Spades}{A-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and Jensen check-called a bet of 45,000 from Troyanovsky. Jensen then check-called another bet, this time 129,000, on the {2-Diamonds} turn, and then both players checked the {9-Diamonds} river. Jensen tabled {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for rivered trips, and Troyanovsky simply mucked.
