Jacks for Jacques
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jacques Blit raised to 80,000 on the button with J♠J♦ and Samara Alexandre three-bet to 200,000 out of the big blind with A♣K♣. Blit just called and the dealer fanned the flop of Q♥10♦9♣.
Alexandre checked after whiffing on the flop and Blit checked it back. The 3♦ landed on the turn and Alexandre led out with a bet of 175,000. Blit wasn't going anywhere with a pair and straight draw and the K♥ completed the board.
Alexandre checked her top pair and Blit sized up a bet of 400,000. After burning through a time bank, Alexandre finally called and another pot was pushed towards Blit.
