It wasn't as Meinder finally flipped over pocket jacks when Minnullin's cards hit the muck.
In the most action we've seen in quite some time (and it's not much), Albert Minnullin raised under the gun. From the button, Domenico Denotaristefani made it three bets to go, and Minnullin called to see a flop.
