Alex Jacob has just collected a nice pot after eliminating another opponent.

In a raised pot, we caught the action on the flop of {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{3-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

. Jacob was in the tank facing a 11,000 chip bet from his opponent. After several minutes of thought he announced he was all in, as his opponent shrugged, looked down at his remaining 12,000 chips and made a pot-committed call.

Jacob: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{A-Diamonds}

Opponent:

{5-Clubs}

{5-Spades}

The turn was the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

and river the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

and Jacob takes it down to send his opponent to the cashier as he moves up to over 80,000 in chips.
