Julius Stands His Ground

From the cutoff, Martin Jacobson opened to 125,000, and Kyle Julius came along with a smooth call from the button. The two of them took a {8-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} flop with Julius calling a continuation bet, and Jacobson fired another 260,000 after the {3-Clubs} on the turn. Julius called that one too, then another 500,000 straight when the {A-Clubs} rivered.

Jacobson had his hand caught in the proverbial cookie jar. His {J-Hearts} {9-Hearts} had missed, and Julius' {A-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} made the winning two pair to scoop up that big pot.
