Raskin Rakes in Chips

With a {6-Spades}{j-Hearts}{j-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs} exposed in the middle of the felt, an unknown player fired out 19,000. Micah Raskin was the only other player in the hand and took his time before opting to raise to 40,000. Raskin's opponent's response was to place a bet that would put Raskin all in. Raskin made the call quickly and cards were turned.

Raskin: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {K-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Raskin held a full house, eights over jacks while all his opponent could muster up was three of a kind jacks. Raskin was awarded the pot and now sits with about 140,000.
