Song Spikes It Against Jaka
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Conor O'Rourke opened to 7,000 from the hijack. Faraz Jaka made the call out of the cutoff before Stephen Song opted to three-bet all-in for 45,000. O'Rourke had had enough and made the fold, but Jaka stuck around with a call to put Song at risk.
Stephen Song: A♠Q♦
Faraz Jaka: 6♠6♦
Song needed to improve, and the flop gave him more pathways to a double up when it came K♠8♦8♠ to give him counterfeit outs.
The 2♣ was a total blank, but the river allowed Song to stay in contention when it came the A♥ to improve him to aces up and score the double up.
