Setback for Jacob

Alex Jacob was sitting with the button when a player two seats to his right open-raised all in for about 17,000. Jacob peeked down at two red eights and quickly called the raise. His opponent opened two red jacks. We thought we were in for a good sweat on a flop of {J-Clubs}

, but the

turn took all the drama out of the hand. It made jacks full of nines for Jacob's opponent and left Jacob drawing dead.

Jacob still has plenty of chips.
