Jackson Shoves on the River

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Three players were eyeing the flop of {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{8-Spades} and both blinds checked it over to David Jackson, who fired 2,800. The small blind called and the big blind folded.

On the {5-Clubs} turn, both players checked to see the {9-Spades} on the river. The big blind checked and Jackson gave it a beat, then moved all-in (16,600). That was enough to take the pot.

Needless to say, he's the chip leader as players resume play following the break.

Ralph Macri
Ralph Macri

The board read {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} with almost 40,000 in the middle.

The player in the under-the-gun position checked and Ralph Macri shoved from the middle position for 22,700. His opponent contemplated his options for a bit and then made the call with {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for top pair. Macri held {5-Clubs}{4-Spades} for the flopped two pair.

The river completed the board with the {8-Hearts} to keep Macri ahead and double him up.
