With 25,000 in the middle, Mike Matusow, Doug Lee, and Alex Jacob saw a flop of {6-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{4-Spades}. Matusow bet out 12,000 from the small blind, then Doug Lee raised to 35,000 from the big blind. Jacob then reraised to 175,000 from the cutoff. Matusow folded, and Lee announced he was all in, and Jacob, who had Lee covered, called.

Jacob showed A-J for top pair, while Lee turned over {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for bottom two. The turn brought the {A-Clubs}, giving Jacob the better two pair. The river was the {K-Diamonds}, and Lee hit the rail.

Jacob now has 370,000.
