Thuritz's Pair of Jacks are Good
Level 2
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Mikael Thuritz made it 4,500 on the button and Phil Ivey defended from the big blind.
Both players checked to the river on a runout of Q♦7♣J♦Q♥4♦ before Ivey bet 8,000. Thuritz called, and Ivey showed 10x7x for a pair of sevens. Thuritz had that beat with J♣3♣ for pair of jacks, and he won the pot.
