Jacobson and His Pocket Tens

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Martin Jacobson
Martin Jacobson

After the player in the cutoff seat raised to 1,200, Martin Jacobson reraised to 4,200 from the small blind. A woman in the big blind then reraised to 10,500, and action folded back to Jacobson. He thought for a bit, then moved all in. With about 17,000 behind, the lady called with the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} to put herself at risk. Jacobson had the {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}, and Jacobson stayed in the lead. The turn was the {J-Diamonds} and gave Jacobson a straight, leaving the woman needing one of the remaining two tens in the deck to stay alive.

The river card paired the board with the {8-Diamonds}, and Jacobson had made a full house to win the pot. He moved up over 160,000 as there remained about 35 minutes left in the day.
