Spragg Cracks Jaka's Aces on the Turn
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Over in the overflow Pau Casals room, Benjamin Spragg opened to 1,200 under the gun before Faraz Jaka three-bet to 3,800 on the button. Spragg called and they went heads-up to the 10♣3♣6♥ flop.
Jaka continued for 2,200, and Spragg called. The turn was the 9♥, and Jaka bet another 8,000. Spragg then moved all in for 23,800, and Jaka snap-called.
Jaka turned over A♣A♦, but Spragg had turned a set holding 9♠9♣. The river was the 7♥ and Spragg doubled up, leaving Jaka nursing a short stack.
Other players in this room include Benny Glaser, Ren Lin, Matin Talebi, and EPT champion Antonio Buonanno.
