Three players built a pot of around 7,000 as they went to a flop of 5♣J♣8♦. The big blind then bet 3,500, and James Schwalie raised to 10,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back to the big blind, and he called.

The turn was the 2♥ and Schwalie moved all in for 13,000. His opponent tanked for several minutes before folding, and Schwalie told him he had two jacks for a set.

"That's what I thought. I don't know if you did or not," his opponent replied.
