Jaffe Scores Double Knockout; Rockets to Massive Chip Lead
Level 15
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Buckle up for this one...
Jonathan Jaffe opened to 18,000 and was called by Jean-Noel Thorel, but then David Yan moved all in for 94,000. Pascal Lefrancois then reshoved for 148,000 and the action was back on Jaffe who also moved all in, covering the other players.
Thorel then decided it was best to get out of the way and the three hands were tabled, with Yan and Lefrancois at risk.
David Yan: 
Pascal Lefrancois: 
Jonathan Jaffe: 
The board ran out 
to give Jaffe the win, scoring the double knockout to take the huge pot. Jaffe is now sitting at over a million chips and is the tournament's clear chip leader.
