Jacks for Jen

Mr X (he overturned his playing card - grr) opened for 3,800, only for Jen Mason to bump it up to 8,500. As the action folded back to Mr X, he paused, considered his options, and pushed all in for what appeared to be around 25-30,000.

Mason didn't look comfortable, but after mumbling something to her foe and waving her hands, she eventually made the call with {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}. Mr X tabled {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}, allowing Mason to sit back in her chair and exhale a breath of relief, thankful that it was her in the driving seat.

The {A-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{K-Spades}{8-Diamonds} board was as safe as houses, and Mason earned herself both the pot and the scalp. She now has well over 100,000 and rejoins the chasing back.
