Poker Gods Smile on Kapeller with a Timely Jack

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Siegfried Kapeller
Siegfried Kapeller

Siegfried Kapeller made it 160,000 from early position and Danut Chisu called with 6♥5♥ from middle position. Siarhei Alontsau then shoved the button for 3,265,000, and Kapeller called off his stack of 1,530,000. Chisu quickly folded.

Siegfried Kapeller: J♦J♣ All in
Siarhei Alontsau: K♥K♦

Kapeller was way behind to the Cowboys of Alontsau and was at serious risk of being the first player eliminated on the final table. The dealer put out a flop of 7♥3♠Q♦ was about as dry as it gets for Kapeller, who needed to find a jack to stay alive. The turn brought his wishes, though, as the J♥ rolled off and improved him to a set, which left Alontsau with just two outs. Alontsau couldn't return the favor as the 10♠ completed the board, and Kapeller can thank the poker gods for that one.
