"SimmShadis" Puts it All on the Line

Level 4 : Blinds 250/500, 60 ante

"Paladin4818" opened to 1,100 from under the gun and "SimmShadis" raised to 3,200 from the button. "SlemDogg13" called from the small blind and "Paladin4818" got out of the way.

The flop came 884 and "SlemDogg13" check-called a 3,986 continuation bet from "SimmShadis".

On the 5 turn "SlemDogg13" checked and "SimmShadis" bet 7,732. "SlemDogg13" put in a check-raise to 25,690 and "SimmShadis" moved all in for 38,727 total. "SlemDogg13" made the call with a covering stack to put "SimmShadis" at risk.

"SimmShadis": JJ
"SlemDogg13": K10

"SlemDogg13" had been caught bluffing with just king high but he still had three outs to win against the pocket-jacks of "SimmShadis". The 10 was not what "SlemDogg13" needed, resulting in "SimmShadis" receiving a full double up at their expense.
