Loeliger Turns a Pair
Caitlin Comeskey opened to 500 under the gun and Paulina Loeliger three-bet to 1,500. Jean Julian in the big blind called while Comeskey folded leaving the remaining two to see the flop.
The flop came 6♣7♠5♦. Julian checked then Loeliger asked how much she had behind. Misunderstanding the question, Julian, holding her hole cards, turned her wrist to show one card, which Comeskey immediately covered with her hand.
Loeliger bet 1,000 and Julian responded with an all-in shove for 6,000. Loeliger called taking them to showdown.
Jean Julian: J♣J♥ 
Paulina Loeliger: A♣K♣
Julian was ahead with jacks and Loeliger was left to hope for one of her over cards to hit the board. The turn K♥ dropped giving Loeliger the higher pair. The 8♣ river was dealt with no consequence. Julian left the table as Loeliger scooped the pot.
