Gould Makes the Right Call With Jacks
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Jeffrey Gilmore raised to 8,000 from the hijack only to be three-bet to 20,000 by Alec Gould on the button. After the blinds folded, Gilmore made the call.
Gilmore knuckled the action over to Gould on the K♣3♥4♣ flop, and Gould bet around 13,000. Gilmore made the call.
Two checks followed the 8♣ turn to see the K♠ appear on the river. Gilmore led out for 20,000, which Gould immediately called.
Gilmore showed ace-high with A♦Q♥ and lost the pot to Gould's J♥J♦ for a pair of jacks.
