Martin Jacobson is King!
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Sweden's Martin Jacobson, the winner of the 2014 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, raised to 20,000 from middle position and the player to his left three-bet to 52,000. Action folded to the player in the big blind and they jammed for approximately 150,000.
Jacobson responded by moving all in over the top for 340,000 and then the three-bettor called off for right around 300,000.
Martin Jacobson: K♥K♦
Late-Position Player: A♦A♣
Big Blind: 10♦10♠
All three players held big pocket pairs, and none of them improved on the 4♥8♥9♠ flop.
The 9♥ turn gave Jacobson the only flush draw, but he didn't hit it. Instead, the dealer put out the K♠ on the river to fill him up and give him the double knockout.
