Reknar Sees Through Jorstad
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
The A♠10♣2♥J♠7♣ board was out there and Espen Jorstad bet 7,500 into Girish Reknar. Reknar, who made a final table earlier this summer, called it off after some thought.
Jorstad rolled over 5♥3♥ — nearly the nut low — in such a confident way that Reknar had to do a double take before revealing his 10♦9♦. His third pair was good, though, and he celebrated it with a slightly exaggerated fist pump to which Jorstad could only smile.
