Jackson Traps James
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Bobby James raised to 30,000 in middle position with Q♣10♦. Daniel Jackson called on the button with 6♠6♥ before Dick Postel defended A♣2♦ in the big blind.
The flop fell J♠7♥6♣. Postel checked and Jams placed a bet of 45,000. Jackson just called with his set before Postel got out of the way. James upped the ante to 145,000 on the K♣ turn, which Jackson called once again.
James completed his triple barrel on the 2♥ river, betting 215,000. This time, Jackson sprung the trap and raised to 725,000. James quickly folded his queen-high, seeing Jackson nearing him in the counts.
