Jaraiz Doubles Up
After an initial raise to 2,400 was called by four players, action landed on Jose Jaraiz in the big blind. He reraised to 19,700. The under-the-gun player jammed. Action folded back around to Jaraiz, who would be the at-risk player should he make the call. After a minute or two of thought, he made the call, putting the rest of his stack, around 20,000, into the pot.
Jose Jaraiz: ![]()
![]()
Opponent: ![]()

Jaraiz was behind, but got the help he needed on the ![]()
![]()
flop, which gave him top pair. At this point, the small blind began venting his frustrations as he had folded ![]()
. His frustrations grew as the
turn hit the table, as this would have completed his nut flush, but more relevantly it gave Jaraiz's opponent a gutshot straight draw. That draw wouldn't hit though, as the
came on the river, locking up the pot for Jaraiz, who doubled up and took a big chunk out of his opponent's big stack, which was well over 100,000 before the hand had started.
