Giha Picks Up Jacks For a Massive Double
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Niall Costigan raised to 80,000 on the button and Sergio Giha three-bet to 300,000 in the big blind. Costigan then moved all in, and Giha snap-called.
Sergio Giha: J♥J♣
Niall Costigan: 5♠5♥
Giha had Costigan crushed with his jacks, and the K♣4♣2♣6♦A♣ board improved him to a flush to secure the pot.
"I'm not paying anything more than two million," Costigan said as Giha's stack was counted down. He had 2,140,000, and Costigan handed over the massive double up.
