Macaluso's Jacks Hold To Double

Level 6 : 200/400, 400 ante

A player opened from early position to 1,000 and Caleb Macaluso reraised all in from middle position for 5,400. Action folded back to the opener and he put in chips to call.

Caleb Macaluso: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{9-Clubs}

"Maca" found himself in great position to find a double as the dealer brought a flop of {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. Though his opponent made a pair of nines, he still needed more help to improve. The turn and river fell {6-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Macaluso's jacks remained good, resulting in the dealer sending the pot his way.
