Martin Jacobson opened with a raise to 38,000. Next door, Marc Whitford moved all in. It took quite a while to count down his stack, as the shaky-handed dealer was having difficulty stacking down the chips. In the end, it looked like 99,000 more to call, and Jacobson did just that, putting Whitford at risk.
