The 'Fro Plays

Alex Jacob
Alex Jacob
The player under the gun moved all in with a short stack, and Alex Jacob called from middle position. It came around to the hijack seat, and he moved all in himself for another 36,000 on top. Jacob called that as well to put two players at risk.

Showdown
Under the gun: {A-Clubs} {3-Hearts}
Jacob: {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}
Hijack: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}

Jacob found one of the two remaining aces on the flop as the board ran out {A-Hearts} {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}. With his aces up, jack kicker, Alex Jacob has knocked off two players, working his way up to a respectable 270,000 in chips.
