Jaka's Roller Coaster Continues

The roller coaster that is Fara Jaka has continued into the night, with the recent PCA Main Event third-place finisher seeing his stack reach lows of around the starting stack, to the high of almost 200,000. Right now, it is somewhere in the middle of that spectrum.

We recently caught a hand that began when the action was folded to Jaka on the button. He raised it up to 2,400 and the the big player made the call. When the dealer flipped over a {10-Clubs}{j-Spades}{4-Spades} flop, Jaka's oppenent checked and Jaka bet 3,800. A call would see a {j-Clubs} turn hit the felt and both players check. It was then on to the {2-Clubs} river, with Jaka's opponent again checking. This time Jaka bet 20,000 and with a fold from his opponent, Jaka raked in the nice little pot.
