McCoy Flats Jacks in the Big Blind, Gets Paid

Level 22 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

John Kelliher, in early position, opened for about 65,000 and Benjamin McCoy called from the big blind.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Spades} and Kelliher continued for 160,000. McCoy shoved for his remaining 785,000 and following a minute of thought, Kelliher made the call.

Benjamin McCoy: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}
John Kelliher: {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}

McCoy was dominating after flatting jacks in the big blind. The board ran out {q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and McCoy doubled up to 1,750,000 while Kelliher was down to fewer than four big blinds, just two hands from being the big blind himself.
