Jewell Straightens Out Kings
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
James Jewell raised to 2,500 from the small blind before the big blind three-bet to 7,500. Jewell responded with a four-bet jam for 25,900 effective as the covering stack, and his opponent snapped it off.
Big Blind: K♥K♣
James Jewell: 6♥6♣
Jewell needed some help to take out his opponent's overpair as the 9♥8♣7♥ flop gave him an open-ended straight draw. No waiting was required on the 5♠ turn as Jewell completed his straight. Nothing changed on the 8♦ river as Jewell collected the pot.
