Jacks Give Boost Siddiqui

Jamie Robbins raised to 78,000 from middle position, then it folded to Tomas Samol on the button who called the raise. It folded over to [Removed:321] Siddiqui in the big blind who checked his cards, then reraised to 415,000. Robbins considered for a bit, then called Siddiqui's reraise, but then Samol — who had both players covered — announced he was pushing all in from the button.

Siddiqui immediately called with his remaining stack, and after tanking for some time Robbins let his hand go. Siddiqui turned over {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} and Samol {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}, and when the board came {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{10-Spades}, Siddiqui's jacks had held to win him the large pot.

Afterwards, Robbins told Siddiqui he'd folded queens, to which Siddiqui nodded, saying "Tough spot."
