Better Kicker for Jex
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
In a blind versus blind situation, Matt Russell in the small blind bet and Michael Jex completed. The flop came 
and Jex called another bet from Russell. The same action happened on the 
turn and both players checked when a 
came on the river.
Russell tabled 
for a pair of fives, but Jex, holding 
, won the hand and the pot with a better kicker.
