"Jacket Trick" Works For Kocab
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Jon Kyte raised to 100,000 on the button and Cheng Zhao called in the small blind. Jiri Kocab then moved all in for 630,000 in the big blind and Kyte folded. Zhao, though, used a time bank before calling.
Jiri Kocab: A♠2♦
Cheng Zhao: A♥3♥
Both players were poised for a chop until the flop brought 10♠3♣10♣, giving Zhao two pair. Kocab got up from his seat and put on his jacket as the A♣ fell on the turn, giving both players the same two pair.
The river was the K♣ and they chopped the pot. "The jacket trick," Kyte said as Kocab retook his seat.
"50K each. You're welcome," Kyte added.
