Jacks vs Kings vs Aces Collision Propels Smith to Chip Lead
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Richard Smith was in a preflop three-way all-in, covering both of his opponents.
First opponent: K♥K♦
Second opponent: A♥A♣
Richard Smith: J♦J♣
Smith's pocket jacks were up against the two best possible starting hands, but the 10♣J♠Q♠ flop gave Smith a huge lead with middle set. He remained ahead as the rest of the board ran out 3♠8♣ to eliminate both opponents and take a commanding chip lead over the rest of the field.
