Jaka Bets Big on River
Level 4
: Blinds 600/1,200, 0 ante
Faraz Jaka finished runner-up in this event last year, and he's off to a positive start in his first match this year.
His opponent, Daisuke Hayashi, raised on the button to 2,000, and Jaka called. Both players checked on the J♠6♥4♣ board.
Things started to get interesting on the turn when Jaka checked and Hayashi bet 2,000. Jaka then check-raised to 7,000 and was met with a call.
The river was the 6♣ and Faraz bet 25,000. Hayashi went into the tank, using a time bank chip. He eventually folded, and Jaka dragged another pot.
