Eskes Wins a Small Pot With Big Slick
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Tjenno Eskes opened to 300,000 from under the gun with only Siarhei Alontsau calling out of the big blind.
The 7♥8♠3♦ flop checked through for the 6♦ to land on the turn. The action went check-check again and the dealer put out the 2♠ river. Both players again checked and Alontsau tabled J♦9♦ for jack-high. Eskes had that beat with A♥K♦, and the pot was pushed to Eskes.
