Jackson Turns Two

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

David Baker opened to 475 from early position, and Gregory Sessler reraised to 1,200 two seats over. Devin Jackson and Blake [Removed:292] both called, and Baker splashed in the extra 725 to see a flop.

It came {J-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}, and the first three players checked to Jackson. With just 5,325 chips left in front of him, Jackson moved all in minus the one green T25 chip he still had covering his cards. That folded [Removed:292] and Baker, but Sessler made the call with the covering stack, putting Jackson at risk and in bad shape as the cards were turned up:

Sessler: {K-Clubs} {10-Hearts}
Jackson: {7-Clubs} {9-Clubs}

Jackson's bottom pair had him in a bad way, but the dealer saved his tournament life as the turn {7-Spades} gave him two pair. One card from the double up, Jackson faded the river as the {2-Clubs} was safe and sound.
