Iversen Takes Down a Huge One

[user46392]

Blind on blind, Martin Jacobson and Albert Iversen saw a {5-Spades}

flop. Jacobson bet out 30,000, only for Iversen to make it 85,000 to go. Jacobson considered, before making it a whopping 230,000. Iversen flat-called, and with 500,000 in the pot, they saw a {9-Clubs}

turn. Jacobson checked and Iversen made it 110,000, forcing Jacobson into the tank. He called. The river was the {10-Clubs}

, and Jacobson checked again. After a silent, expressionless pause, Iversen bet 175,000, and a be-sunglassed Jacobson started to stare him down. He checked his hole cards, and then passed. Iversen takes down a 700,000 pot putting him now up to 1,305,000, while Iversen dips to 1,486,000.
