Jaka Takes the Lead

Faraz Jaka has been winning his fair share of small pots as of late and has now taken the lead.

In a recent hand, Jaka raised to 60,000 on the button and Nikolai Mamut defended his big blind.

Both players checked on the 4♦K♥A♣ flop and then Mamut check-called a 60,000 bet from Jaka on the 5♥ turn.

The 9♣ completed the board and Mamut checked a final time — prompting a 125,000 bet from Jaka.

Mamut let his hand go after a bit of thought and Jaka was sent the pot.
