Pilkington Wins Multiway With Top Pair
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Jessica Pilkington raised to 1,700 from under the gun and was called by Ali Zia on the button and Liam Johnston in the big blind.
The flop came 2♣10♥J♣ and action checked to Pilkington, who bet 2,500. Zia and Johnston both called.
The turn was the 6♥. Johnston checked and Pilkington bet 6,000. Zia made the fold and Johnston called.
The river came the 5♦. Johnston checked again and Pilkington moved all in for to put Johnston on the spot for 11,000 chips effective.
Johnston thought for a moment before making the fold and showing J♥8♥ for a pair of jacks. Pilkington also showed her hand, A♥J♠ for a pair of jacks with higher kicker.
"You've made some pretty sick folds to me today," said Pilkington.
