A Big Decision Before Break

On the button, Mike "GoLeafsGoEh" Leah got it started with a raise to 25,000. In the small blind, Tony Bueti reraised, bumping it up to 60,000. Not to be outdone, big blind Casey Jarzabek moved all in for a total of 224,000. Leah quickly folded, but Bueti went deep into the tank. As the time clock beeped for break, Bueti still needed a few more minutes to make his decision.

"If I didn't go out in my last tournament with this hand, I would call," lamented Bueti. With that, he tossed his cards into the muck, announcing, "I had pocket jacks."

"You folded pocket jacks?!" asked Jarzabek. When Bueti confirmed, Jarzabek opened up his own hand: {A-Clubs} {8-Hearts}. After that big move, Jarzabek has improved his own chip count up to 365,000.
