Jaka Talks Himself Into It

Faraz Jaka opened the pot to 85,000, and David Granados defended his big blind to go heads up. The dealer gave them 
to work with on the flop, and Granados check-called another 80,000 from Jaka. They both checked through the 
turn, and the 
completed the board. Now Granados led out into the pot with 155,000, and that forced Jaka to take pause. He cut the call from his stack and shot a glance across the table. He made a couple quiet comments as he tried to get a read on Granados, but it looked like he was going to talk himself into a fold.
Jaka picked his hole cards up off the table and stared at them for a while, occasionally glancing up at the board and his opponent. He had his cards a few inches out in front of him in his left hand, but he suddenly grabbed the calling chips with his right and slung them across the line.
Granados showed 
for the airball, and Jaka's 
was the best hand and good enough to win the pot.
